About the programme

Your training is primarily individualized and includes elements such as structural analysis, text analysis, understanding the connection between text and music, verbal and physical communication, and nuanced conducting techniques.

In addition, you can also look forward to two types of internships during the program:

1) internship supervision with your own choir

2) internships with different types of choirs the Academy pays for access to

Other subjects in the program are ensemble conducting, auditory analysis, singing and vocal theory.

Schedule
Your schedule will vary from week to week throughout the year. Some subjects are only available for limited periods during the year, while other subjects are available all year round. In addition to the scheduled classes, you should plan to set aside time for practicing and for unscheduled study activities such as masterclasses, workshops and concerts. When you do not have scheduled classes, you can reserve available rooms for practicing alone or with other students.

FAQ

Typical questions and practical info

Conservatory education in Denmark consists of a 3-year bachelor's degree, a 2-year master's degree and an additional 2-year soloist program.

The master's programs require that you have passed a bachelor's degree from a Danish or foreign music conservatory - or have equivalent qualifications.

The entrance exams require you to demonstrate your skills on your main instrument/vocal and test you in a number of general subjects such as theory and ear training.
