Programme structure
In your first year a core programme of musical studies provides a broad grounding in the fundamental elements of music performance, composition and academic musical study.
In your second and third years a free choice is available from a wide selection of courses in range of subjects. You may also choose to take up to 25% of your programme in subjects from other disciplines throughout your degree programme.
Most subjects offered by the Music department come under three main themes:
History and Criticism: introduces historical, analytical and repertory studies, ethnomusicology and sociological topics, from the Middle Ages to the present.
Performance: supports instrumental and vocal performance (solo or ensemble) in classical, jazz and pop styles, with 20 hours of fully funded individual tuition per year for solo performers, plus fortnightly master classes, professional workshops and group coaching.
Composition: includes extensive project work and advanced studio techniques, leading to the submission of a collection of original compositions, either classical or commercial.
