The process of becoming a rock musician strongly relates to the organisational form of the band (Bennett 1980; Green 2002; Behr 2010). At all levels of ambition and success, membership of a band provides the musician with a natural entry point for performing to an audience and forging a potential career (Smith 2013a). The ‘micro-organisational’ (Bennett 2001) development of a band, therefore, is an important career prerequisite for rock musicians (Behr 2015). However, the social and practical challenges of musicianship seem to be continuously underemphasised within the field of popular music studies (Cohen 1993; Kirschner 1998; Lashua 2017; Weston 2017; Kielich 2018). Therefore, in this article I will focus on an aspiring rock band's informal learning processes in becoming a small business together. The study provides insights into the educational and organisational aspects of band practices and contributes to the fields of popular music, education and organisation studies – fields that are converging in the emerging interdisciplinary research area of ‘organising music-making’ (Beech and Gilmore 2015).

成为小企业的矛盾心理:在有抱负的摇滚乐队中学习过程

成为摇滚音乐家的过程与乐队的组织形式密切相关(Bennett 1980;Green 2002;Behr 2010)。在野心和成功的各个层面,乐队成员身份为音乐家提供了一个自然的切入点,可以向观众表演并打造潜在的职业生涯(Smith 2013a)。因此,乐队的“微型组织”(Bennett 2001)发展是摇滚音乐家的重要职业先决条件(Behr 2015)。然而,在流行音乐研究领域,音乐才能的社会和实践挑战似乎一直被低估(Cohen 1993;Kirschner 1998;Lashua 2017;Weston 2017;Kielich 2018)。因此,在本文中,我将重点关注一个有抱负的摇滚乐队在成为一家小企业的过程中的非正式学习过程。
