The Master of Music degree is generally a two-year course of study and is designed to prepare the student for a professional career in music composition and/or provide the necessary foundations for doctoral study. The curriculum includes private studio instruction as well as participation in group seminars, master-classes, and workshops. A strong emphasis is placed on the development of a portfolio of compositions, significant in scope, including solo, chamber, vocal, wind, orchestral, and electro-acoustic works- many of which are supported by professional performance and recording opportunities.
