Overview

This specialised stream within the Bachelor of Music/Bachelor of Advanced Studies focuses on performance. You will combine your chosen principal study with orchestral/ensemble studies and chamber music, aural and harmony studies, and analysis, history and cultural studies. This specialist degree program allows you to develop as a musician and build your experience of current approaches to music. Students receive individual tuition on their instrument or voice and will be assessed in the final two years of the degree by the presentation of public recitals.
