Course Description:

'' The MA Music programme at Middlesex University has established a reputation for providing the Music postgraduate with a curriculum to strengthen, but also to contextualise the more specialist work on which they may have decided to focus his or her professional development. The course structure is flexible to allow students to vary their work according to current interest(s) or to focus exclusively on their chosen practical discipline. This pliability permits international postgraduate students from wider Music disciplines to collaborate and benefit from one anothers¿ exerience. Postgraduates are also encouraged to engage with unique lectures, seminars and workshops on the third year undergraduate BA Music, BA Jazz and BA Music & Arts Management programmes if they wish, and to join in with the undergraduate music ensembles which include chamber groups, jazz, contemporary, Latin American and choir.
