Course summary
The FdA Music Practitioner will have a focus on the language of music, devising, performing, recording, composing, songwriting, improvisation, context and music soundtracks. This area, with its proximity to the rest of Devon and to Cornwall offers unique opportunities for creative responses to the city and to the surrounding landscape and growing a more broadly-based culture of music performance work than that which currently exists here. Graduates will be able to take the work that they have made here and apply its principles elsewhere. They will be able to reach out, beyond the city and nationally, indeed internationally to other cities via touring and festivals. The course will enable our students to develop the creative, technical and employability skills essential for working in today’s highly diverse music industry. Our students will organise and taking part in activities ranging from staging events, publishing original music, liaising and collaborating with a broad range of clients in a wide range of performance contexts throughout the year.
