Overview
Our MMus Composition course sits at the heart of the London College of Music.
It represents a creative hub for innovative, forward-thinking musical minds that, in the spirit of practice-as-research, join practical composition and academic inquiry.
Through an exploration of sophisticated compositional techniques, advanced orchestration, and audio-MIDI production, this course enables you to specialise in music composition, while providing an insight into 21st-century practices and ideas.
Online Study Option
To make our MMus Composition course as accessible as possible we also offer a distance-learning version of the course which can be studied online.
