Overview

Music Performance course at Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama will be supported by a series of performance classes, coaching, workshops and masterclasses, offering a varied and comprehensive approach to your training.

Overview

• You’ll get a wide variety of teaching approaches to enhance your artistic and technical skills. One-to-one tuition (which we call ‘principal study’) forms the heart of your development as a performer, but you’ll also have workshops, masterclasses, accompaniment, coaching and solo and collaborative performance activities to support your study.
• In these performance activities, you can focus on particular styles or genres that you’re interested in, and you’ll receive constructive feedback from your tutors and your peers – crucial to your development as an artist.
• You’ll also have numerous opportunities to take part in chamber music and ensemble performances. Available ensembles include orchestral, band, choral and operatic.
• Our impressive list of tutors includes renowned instrumental and vocal soloists and chamber musicians, distinguished coaches, prominent composers, conductors and creative artists in a range of genres – plus principal players in major orchestras and ensembles. They offer you not only first-rate teaching, but mentorship and networking opportunities as well.
• Our programme of study is flexible – you can shape your core modules to match your skills and career ambitions. With some assessments, there is a certain degree of flexibility, too, so you can test your knowledge using methods that suit your style of learning.
