“We offer a unique meeting place for development and safe challenges. My view is that we recognise every individual in their need to grow and to learn to find their own way. As a student with us, you get a chance to build a strong and distinctive artistic voice and to find your own unique style in order to go forth into the world with your music.

“The bachelor’s programme in Contemporary Traditions in Music offers an inspiring and creative environment in which to explore the different traditions into which you want to delve deeper. The focus is on playing together with others, meeting other students and teachers with different musical experiences and perspectives. You develop your abilities to work with creative processes and participate in dynamic ensemble work. You acquire the tools you need to work as a freelance musician and a teaching artist in a diverse array of contexts.”
