The performance programme in composition is intended for those who want to be composers with an orientation towards western contemporary art music. The studies aim to train students to become composers with a very high artistic and professional ability, and focuses on and deepens aesthetic discussions, your personal style in music, your development as well as your profile and independent position as a composer. The main goal is to provide incisive tools for the comprehensive analysis of the complex sound reality around us and to create a set of skills that might, in the wider sense, elaborate personal artistic solutions. After completing the programme you will be prepared, using advanced knowledge and abilities, to work creatively in your own professional role in a working and cultural life that is constantly changing and developing. The Master’s programme in Music, Composition Diploma, is a further exploration of musical language, particularly suitable for committed and talented composers who are about to decide to make composition their main activity.
