Summary
The PGCert in Sacred Music is an online course which can be taken part-time over a maximum of two years.
The course is taught by academic staff who are church music practitioners. It is aimed at those already active in church music roles, those in active ministry or ministerial training, or those who simply wish to deepen their understanding of sacred music.
Highlights - Develop your awareness of how sacred music making has both shaped, and been shaped by, the practice of Christian worship at different times.
-
Deepen your understanding of the role of the present-day church musician in its different facets and contexts.
-
Deepen your understanding of the relationship between sacred music making and the wider social, cultural and political life of the eras and contexts that have shaped particular repertoires.
-
Reflect on how insights and knowledge gained on the course can directly inform your work as a performer, music director, minister or researcher.
