Course summary

Entry requirements

- Degree at British Master’s standard: normally merit degree or equivalent. - English proficiency (for non-native English or Welsh speakers): IELTS overall result of 6.5 with no individual score lower than 6.0. - Proposal of a project, appropriate to the duration and academic level of the course. - Performers will have to audition or, alternatively, submit a recent unedited recorded video performance, featuring contrasting repertoire (45-60 minutes). - Musicologists and composers may be asked to submit samples of their work. Postgraduate degrees by research are suitable for candidates who already have some experience at postgraduate level (normally evinced through a Master’s degree).
