Summary
Advance your skills as a performer with a postgraduate course in Instrumental Performance at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.
Whether you're a recent graduate or returning to study after a break, our postgraduate courses in Instrumental Performance provide you with advanced-level training in your principal study area, preparing you for a solo, chamber or orchestral career, alongside excellent opportunities to develop other skills relevant to a future career in the music profession.
These courses are open to students pursuing orchestral instruments, keyboard instruments and other solo instruments such as recorder, guitar and saxophone. In addition, there is a Chamber Music route for bowed string and guitar ensembles.
The Instrumental Performance pathway includes a specialism in Global Traditional Music Performance for performers interested in any form of folk music from around the world. We also welcome applications from instrumentalists and singers who are developing fusions of folk music with other genres, as well as students wishing to focus on song-writing. It is common for students working in this area to apply without standard formal qualifications. If you are interested in auditioning for this, please contact Joe Broughton.
We also offer a 'Multi-Instrument' specialism for woodwind players who do not wish to follow the traditional orchestral route, but would prefer to pursue a career as a multi-instrumentalist in musical theatre. All principal study woodwinds instruments welcome but aimed primarily at saxophone, flute and clarinet players, this course will train multi-instrumentalists to a professional level. If you are interested in auditioning for this, please contact Jenni Phillips, Head of Woodwind.
You'll receive specialist tuition from leading UK and internationally renowned performers and teachers. In addition, you'll enjoy regular performance opportunities, both within Departments and in concerts, as well as having the chance to participate in masterclasses led by distinguished guest artists.
You'll have full access to our superb £57 million facilities, including our Concert Hall, 150-seat Recital Hall, our black box performance space known as The Lab, and more than 70 practice rooms, ensemble rooms and workshops; all acoustically designed to provide a music-making environment that is world class.
