LCCM’s new BA (Hons) Commercial Music provides a comprehensive award for modern music makers with pathways suited to solo vocalists and rappers, bedroom producers and ambitious DIY artists and creative executives. The new degree combines the best knowledge and expertise from LCCM’s long running music performance & production degree but with less emphasis on music theory and original instrumentation. The programme combines core and optional modules that are almost all cross-programme enabling students to meet and collaborate with peers on the other music and music business programmes at LCCM.The Foundation Year if taken as part of the 4 year degree is designed for candidates just starting in their musical journeys, ideally with a couple of music productions, events or relevant qualifications under their belt. Core modules in academic skills and an introduction to music technology and copyright law will ensure you are ready to continue your studies at Level 4 and throughout the rest of the degree. This is a good level to try out optional modules in performance, recording, music theory or music marketing and find the right fit for you.
