MUSIC PERFORMANCE

Do you love performing, composing or making music?  Want to develop your skills build your confidence and take your passion for music to the next level?

This practical, industry-focused course is equivalent to one A level and prepares you for the real-world music industry. Through rehearsals, music-making and live performances, you will develop your creativity, technical ability and confidence as a musician, with the opportunity to put on a live show for an audience.

Lessons are hands-on and practical. You will take part in individual and group rehearsals, develop your repertoire, refine your technique and work collaboratively with other musicians. You will also learn to evaluate your work, respond to feedback and make improvements.

Alongside your musical development, you will build valuable transferable skills that employers and universities look for, including teamwork, time management, organisation, resilience and independent learning. You will develop the confidence to present your ideas, meet deadlines, take responsibility for your progress and work effectively with others.

This qualification can support progression to further study in music and help prepare you for careers in performance, songwriting, session work, teaching, sound technology, events management and the wider creative industries.
