Composer - Jazz/pop

On the Composer Jazz/Pop program, you have two main subjects. One is the teaching of your instrument and the other is composition, in which theoretical knowledge is combined with practical experience and throughout the program. As part of your work with your two majors, you will compose and perform larger compositions during your two years at the program.

You will work with different composition techniques in both jazz/pop and modern classical music, as well as orchestration, instrumentation and performance. You will be introduced to important composers and their characteristics and be able to reflect on your own and others' compositions and place them in a larger context.

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 throughout the year. 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.
