Many to many relationships in ASP MVC

I'm using MVC 3 with Razor and Entity Framework for an assignment.

So far, I have been using scaffolds to create a basic CRUD page for all my models.

Two of the models I have are Musicians and Sessions, this is a many-to-many relationship (there is a pivot table for them in the database, but not in the models).

Basically, I need some way of assigning musicians to sessions, but I've noticed that all my properties get populated by the Razor tag, @Html.EditorFor(model => model.SomeProperty), but how can I get this to work with a collection?

I would suggest you look here:

stuck with asp.net mvc 3.0 Scaffolding in case of many to many relationship

By default, ASP.NET MVC 3 doesn't scaffold many-to-many relationships. As mentioned in that link, your best option is to scaffold your Session or Musician and then hand-code the selection of the other model in each view.
