Cover a range of musical styles including avant garde, classical, jazz, folk, blues and rock to develop a broad understanding of music.
Play regularly in ensembles, including vocal groups, laptop orchestras and Taiko drumming.
Benefit from guest speaker artists and ensembles; recent visitors include Graham Fitkin (composer), Kenny Werner (piano), Kevos (ensemble) and Adrian Utley (Portishead).
Do a three-month placement or internship in your third year that can take any form, from shadowing a professional composer to working with a London orchestra.
Take advantage of our prestigious international exchange partners including Sarah Lawrence College NYC, La Salle, Nagoya University, Griffith University and Helsinki Metropolia University.
