CLASSES
Below you will find a list of the types of classes and modules that have been on offer at the Academy.
Your Principal Study is the primary focus of your work at the Academy. The requirements differ from department to department. The below is an overview, for more details please refer to the course specification.
MASTER OF ARTS (PERFORMANCE: INTENSIVE)
This is an intensive one year course. Performance students normally study on a two-year Master of Arts (MA) programme but, in exceptional circumstances, can take it in one year (intensive).
The MA is designed to allow maximum flexibility for you to concentrate upon the range of activities offered, to develop your own performance initiatives and to form a bridge to a performance career. This one year programme is only taken by a few candidates each year and we advise that students apply for the two-year programme. The length of programme can be discussed at your audition and adjusted later, you are not tied to the programme length you select in your application.
Performance Requirements: A performance standard at least equivalent to that of a recognised music performance diploma in your Principal Study. Academic Requirements: A good Honours Bachelor degree (normally in Music: RQF Level 6). Otherwise an international qualification of an equivalent standard.
