Jazz/pop

Jazz in all its forms is the focal point of the teaching on Jazz/Pop program in Odense. The teaching combines practical subjects that increase your skills with your voice or instrument and theoretical subjects that give you an understanding of the foundations of music. We place great emphasis on developing your skills as an ensemble musician as well as your ability to create your own music. You will also learn to teach music in various music pedagogic subjects. When you have individual lessons on your instrument, we focus on musical, pedagogical and technical issues, while in ensemble lessons you will learn how to work in different musical contexts.

Besides developing your skills on your main instrument and as an ensemble musician, the master's program also focuses on instrumental pedagogy with independent teaching in ensemble management, pedagogy and psychology.

In addition to the scheduled teaching, you can experience masterclasses and workshops with internationally recognized musicians, interdisciplinary focus weeks, concerts at both the academy and professional venues, study trips and much more.

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 scheduled classes, you should plan to set aside time for rehearsals and 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.
