What will I be learning?

In addition to this, musicians/vocalists will develop performance and rehearsal skills.

How will I learn?

The course runs on three days per week at the Music Mill and is a mix of hands-on practical work and academic study. You will take part in lectures, demonstrations, workshops and live events. You will be set projects that relate to industry specific situations and develop your skills in professional settings.

What else might I want to know?

This course runs in Newton Abbot. If you are a musician you will be required to provide your own musical instrument but drum kits and amps are available in the rehearsal rooms. You will need to purchase a media storage device and a pair of headphones for
digital work. There will be opportunities to go on music related trips and activities.

What can I do afterwards?
