Course overview In this course you discover your own path as a composer. We welcome traditional and innovative composition styles, offering you opportunities to combine instruments and the latest technology to produce new compositions. On this course, you can create musical and sonic artworks using electroacoustics and computer technology, traditional (or not so traditional) instrumental and vocal composition, or a combination of these. We're also excited by projects involving interactive systems, multimedia, and sound installations with a range of music facilities on campus for you to use.
You are normally expected to hold a good Honours degree (typically a 2:1 or above), or an equivalent qualification if you were educated outside the UK, usually in a relevant subject area.
