Course Overview

During your studies, you will develop your performance skills in 20 one-to-one instrumental/vocal lessons with the same specialists who teach in our degree program. The course will equip you with essential skills for a performer such as interpretation, effective practicing, and handling performance anxiety. You will build your knowledge of music theory, and the study of harmony will be delivered in a fresh, creative way using the guitar. Your creativity will develop through improvisation, taking inspiration from the music you perform. Our Foundation Year introduces you to music history by examining music in the everyday environment of the home, asking how music is made and consumed, and its function in society. We explore the most personal side of music €“ how emotions, sexuality, identity, and personality are shaped by music. Whether you are a complete beginner or a highly accomplished pianist, you will develop piano playing skills needed for a career in music.
