About this course

Entrants to the Graduate School will normally hold a first degree or equivalent (or, for some programmes, be of equivalent professional standing). This qualification need not be in music, but all candidates for performance programmes must be able to satisfy the College that they have already achieved an advanced standard of performance in their Principal Study discipline, and have the potential to develop further towards a professional level of attainment.

Applicants must apply in the first instance for the two year MMus in Solo Performance. For one year courses all pathways are available.
