The MA in Music embraces your passion for music, providing the guidance, opportunities, and tools you’ll need to flourish in your chosen field. Our course encourages you to draw critically from others’ work and develop your own specialisms, be they in performance, composition, musicology, ethnomusicology, music psychology or a combination of these. As a Masters student, you’ll enjoy studying within a close-knit community, encountering a wide range of interests relating to diverse musical forms from across the globe.Every Masters student takes a core module which explores the various issues currently at the heart of the discipline while providing the skills and knowledge needed to carry out independent research at Masters level. In addition, specialist knowledge and skills are fostered through a series of seminars, and here you choose between five options: musicology, ethnomusicology, composition, performance, and music psychology.Relating to your chosen specialism, you’ll also work closely with one of the Department’s experts to produce a major project in the form of a dissertation, portfolio of compositions, or performance. This is a wonderful opportunity for you to delve deeply into specific musical practices that you find particularly fascinating. Additionally, we offer a range of elective modules to choose from, and students can also choose to do a module in another department across the Arts and Humanities Faculty (Philosophy, History, English, Classics, Theology and Religion, and Modern Languages and Cultures).We pride ourselves on being one of the leading music departments in the UK, offering innovative courses and producing cutting-edge music research. As a postgraduate, you will have access to state-of-the-art facilities, including recording studios, practice and rehearsal rooms, our concert room, and an instrument collection. In addition, the University library contains a wide collection of books, scores, and CDs, and offers a rich range of online resources.
