Summary

This year-long module offers the opportunity for intensive development of performing skills. Students receive regular individual lessons across the year with their assigned vocal or instrumental tutor, with whom they agree on a selection of pieces to be studied. Beyond the one-to-one lessons, the module consists of a set of workshops, which tackle a variety of themes tailored to the course participants and aim to complement individual progression in vocal or instrumental studies.The end-of-year performance(see assessment) should usually include items selected from the appropriate syllabus of professionally recognised diploma lists, including ABRSM, Trinity, and Rockschool. Instrumental recital: two items at DipABRSM level or equivalent. Vocal recital: three items from the same syllabus. Further details can be found in the module handbook.
