Description

Students prepare a portfolio of representative creative work. The course is geared towards musicians whose creative practice spans more than one discipline, for example composer-performers, singer-songwriters, songwriter-producers. Students wishing to explore music making in combination with other art forms, for example film or visual art, can also take the course as long as an appropriate supervisory team can be found.
