This course involves fundamental music studies for students in their primary musical practice (which can be an instrument, voice, composition, creative production or music research). Repertoires from diverse styles can be studied such as classical, contemporary, popular, jazz and world music. This course offers students the opportunity for intensive development of their individual skills with a focus on exploring styles and genres other than those with which the student is familiar.
| Objectives | At the completion of this course students will demonstrate, within their chosen area of study: - Proficient implementation of fundamentals of technique applicable to the chosen practice, where appropriate e.g: production standards, control of compositional language and physiological issues and creative use of media. - Proficient implementation of expression and interpretation as appropriate to their chosen practice,e.g: improvisation, analytical and creative approaches to composition and performance and/or innovative use of technology. - An understanding of stylistic diversity e.g: technology, collaboration, repertoire, genre, hybrid forms and familiarity with styles other than the chosen focus of the student. - Proficient understanding of the student's practice/work routine and evidence of its implementation. - Development of confidence in presenting work, including preparation, readiness, managing anxiety and engaging with music-makers, audiences and other collaborators. - Continuing development of understanding of critical thinking and discernment in the student's work. |
