Just see if you've taken all the required classes that a pharmacy school wants or not. If some of the classes you took for your bachelors qualify, they'll count it.
Pharmacy schools don't require a bachelors. In some states, the competition is so fierce, it looks better if you have a bachelors. However, what that degree is doesn't matter. So, your BA and MA in Music is perfectly fine in that regard.
So, you just have to make sure you have all the prereq classes. A BA in Music likely covers the humanities stuff. I suspect you've fulfilled any foreign language requirements a pharm school might have. The only unknowns would be if you took all the science classes they want and possibly a Communications or Public Speaking class that many pharm schools want.

With your added information, the answer will still be yes.
Many of your prerequisite classes should transfer to a new degree, but probably not all of them. It would depend on what your career/guidance counselor says on the matter.
You definitely would not have to go through *all* of the courses (eng lit 101 and the other basic freshman 5), but absolutely have to take several other classes.
And by already having a degree, you obviously know that each specialty requires it's own specific course of study and training, so in order to become a pharmacist, you will have to go through those courses.

It depends. Most pharmacy schools have pre-requisites to get in most are in the range of a year of anatomy and physiology, a year of organic chemistry and some microbiology some have other such as inorganic. The best way would be to determine what classes you have taken and look at the schools website to see if they will make exception for grad students.

You need to talk with the college counselor about that. You will need to find out if they will HONOR your past classes, depending on how long ago you graduated... Send the target college counselor and email asking about that... Maybe they can honor most of your past credits. I went back to college after a 9 year break and they honored almost all of the past credits, so yes, it can happen to you also. Good luck..

The most you can do in a pharmacy without a pharmacy or other applicable medical degree is work as a receptionist or cashier. If you want to be a pharmacist, you have to have a pharmacy degree.
