The MMus offers a flexible route to advanced musical study including classical, popular, world, contemporary, early, folk, and traditional. You can pursue these research-based courses through creative practice (eg composition, performance, improvisation, or a blend of these) or musicological study in a field of your choosing. Practitioners are able to study in areas such as performance, composition, studio-based work, improvisation, sound art, and mixed media €“ focusing on any one of these or blending them according to their creative needs. Musicologists are able to study in areas such as critical and cultural musicology, ethnomusicology and world music, folk music studies, early music, popular music studies, and music theory and analysis. It is also possible to combine practice-based and musicologically orientated projects. The Music Masters Research Training module teaches essential skills and methodologies for the rest of the research-focused course. A series of four Elective Projects allow you to pursue research selected from a range of topics taught in staff-led seminar groups, or undertake supervised solo study in practice-based or musicological research.
