Academic excellence
We have a long tradition of academic excellence and our courses are unique for the variety of options available. The School provides more than skills-training, thus aiming to ensure its graduates have the capacity to become national and international leaders in their fields.

Our excellent facilities include a fully-equipped media centre with editing suites, production studios, media and digital media equipment. Music facilities and resources include studios for electronic composition and recording, concert halls, rehearsal space, practice rooms, a music library and instruments.
Music Performance
Our practice-based Music teaching presents unique opportunities for student compositions to be performed, for interactions between live music and electronics, and for historically-informed performance arising from our musicological activity. In addition, there is an extensive range of extra-curricular activities, including orchestras, choirs, a brass band, a jazz band, a concert band, and opera and musical theatre groups.
