Course summary

Bristol's Music Department is small enough to offer you a personalised degree experience. Our staff include some of the world's leading experts in their fields. Our graduates have gone on to be BBC producers, professional performers and composers, publishers, agents, lawyers, teachers, and even parliamentary private secretaries and university pro-vice-chancellors! A music degree from a highly regarded university is a fantastic entry point to a wide array of careers, and we stay in touch with a large number of former students, often via our ongoing work with music media (especially the BBC), publishers, choirs and orchestras. We support our students' journey through their music degree with professional masterclasses and composition workshops for those who love performing and composing, while most of our history teaching is done in small group seminars where we share ideas on the latest research. We are exceptionally lucky to have first-rate professional musicians teaching our students who take performance, and students have many opportunities to develop as performers during their time with us, including conducting ensembles from small choirs to whole operas. For enquiries about organ and choral scholarships, please contact the Department directly. The Department of Music webpages (https://www.bristol.ac.uk/music/) provide further insight into life in one of the UK's most highly regarded Music departments.
