Program overview

The Master’s Degree Programme in Music Performance provides students with a solid foundation for developing a personal artistic expression and profile. The programme places strong emphasis on music performance itself. In addition to advancing instrumental, artistic, and musical skills at a high level, it is designed to educate independent and reflective musicians with a deep passion for the art. The Artistic In-Depth Project constitutes more than half of the programme, comprising 75 credits and three master’s concerts. In addition, students complete four compulsory courses totaling 30 credits, and elective courses worth 15 credits. The compulsory courses focus on Musician’s psychology, Reflection on and around your artistic work and Entrepreneurship for musicians. We assemble a team of teachers and supervisors to support your development and guide you through your chosen in-depth study. Graduates of the programme earn the title Master of Arts in Music Performance. You may choose to focus on an in-depth specialization in your individual musical performance. Alternatively, in your second year, you can explore, document, and share a chosen performative topic or project. Jazz students may opt for the European Jazz Master (EUJAM), an exchange programme offered in collaboration with music conservatories in Paris, Amsterdam, Basel, and Berlin.
