It culminates in a major project of your choice focusing on one of the following paths: performance, production, composition, or entrepreneurship. The path that you choose for your major project will be the specialism stated on your final qualification.

With performance, you’ll have the chance to develop your musicality and your capabilities to a highly advanced level. Set yourself up as the go-to musician on the national music scene – and beyond.

Composition

Whether you are a singer-songwriter, a sound artist, or a composer interested in sync opportunities, this path will deepen your knowledge, understanding, and ability to write music for a variety of situations, channels, and outputs. Furthermore, it is often an excellent pathway of collaboration and will see you embark on exciting projects that span media and genre.
