Summary
Study as a postgraduate composer at one of the UK's most innovative composition departments. In recent years, Birmingham Conservatoire's Composition department has produced outstanding contemporary artists such as Laura Mvula, Raffertie and Charlotte Bray.
Our composition route actively celebrates the diversity of today’s musical genres and fosters artists who challenge, innovate and transform notions of artistic practice today. You’ll have opportunities to collaborate with performers, to have your works performed by professional musicians and to collaborate with film, TV, theatre and gaming practitioners.
You'll be encouraged to express yourself in multiple musical and artistic genres.
By studying composition within a thriving conservatoire setting, you'll have excellent opportunities to collaborate with performers and to have your works performed.
Alongside your focus on composition, our course provides opportunities for you to develop other skills relevant to a future career in the music profession.
We also offer the opportunity to study for an MMus via our 12-month route. To be eligible for this route, applicants must be able to show evidence of an extremely high level of achievement in the Principal Study area and a strong academic record at undergraduate level (or equivalent). If you are interested in the 12-month route, please email an initial enquiry about your potential eligibility to conservatoire.admissions@bcu.ac.uk as it is not possible to apply for this route via UCAS.
