Program Description
On this course students will take performance and/or composition in each year. Alongside these, they'll study music across history and within culture. Students will develop advanced knowledge of music theory and analysis.
Students will graduate from this course with a BMus (Hons) qualification, which denotes a practical emphasis - Surrey uses performing and/or composing as the key ways to increase your knowledge of music and develop their musicianship. Students will learn about music of the past and the present, in both classical and popular styles.
In their final year, students will develop a large-scale individual project; this is a good example of the flexible approach students can take to their learning - it can be a substantial written investigation, or a performance or composition project, with complementary writing.
On the four-year degree, students also be able to take a year-long Professional Training placement and gain experience in the music and wider arts industries.
