&#13;
The MMus/MA in Performance and Musicology is intended for highly skilled instrumentalists and singers who wish to pursue academic research into music and musical practices alongside advanced study in performance.&#13;
&#13;
Individual lessons in the principal study are at the heart of the degree, supported by a wide range of performance based activities within the the rich musical environment of the Conservatoire.&#13;
&#13;
The Musicology module will introduce you to the study of music as a scholarly endeavour, with a particular emphasis on historiography, aesthetics and criticism, and editorial techniques.&#13;
&#13;
The programme culminates in a number of assessed public performances, alongside a written dissertation on a self-chosen issue, source or repertory related to your principal study.</description><pubDate>Fri, 02 Oct 2026 11:06:17 +0100</pubDate><link>https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/degree-courses/73?ref=68</link><guid>https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/degree-courses/73?ref=68</guid></item><item><title>MMus/MA Performance</title><description>Our MMus/MA Performance is a flexible programme with a strong emphasis on performance, designed to refine and extend your musicianship in preparation for your next steps into your chosen career path.&#13;
&#13;
The MMus/MA Performance programme is designed for students who aim to make music their life’s work.&#13;
&#13;
Perhaps you aspire to become an opera singer, a concert artist or orchestral musician; to be a collaborative pianist, compose or arrange; to work as a freelance instrumentalist or to be a conductor, music leader or animateur. You may be planning to coach or teach, either as the sole focus of your professional life or, more likely, as part of a portfolio career. You might have your sights set on doctoral study, on making a contribution to Scotland’s vibrant traditional music culture or may perhaps wish to fulfil one of the vital specialist music roles in related art forms such as ballet.&#13;
&#13;
Whatever your rationale for joining the Conservatoire’s MMus/MA programme, you are here to refine and extend your musicianship in preparation for your next steps.&#13;
&#13;
Our MMus/MA Performance pathway places a main emphasis on performance instead of academic work, with 80 of 120 credits for MA students and first year MMus students dedicated to your principal study. For students undertaking the two-year MMus, this rises to 90 credits in second year. The programme is designed to be flexible and in both stages you will be able to choose your other credits from a range of options including performance classes, ensembles, rehearsals and masterclasses, and/or other courses from across the many disciplines we offer here at the Conservatoire.</description><pubDate>Fri, 02 Oct 2026 11:04:07 +0100</pubDate><link>https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/degree-courses/72?ref=68</link><guid>https://www.musicalchairs.info/de/degree-courses/72?ref=68</guid></item><item><title>MMus/MA Joint Principal Study</title><description>The MMus/MA Joint Principal Study (JPS) degree is intended for exceptional students who are capable of performing at masters level in more than one discipline.

Please note: it is not possible to study two instruments from the same family. e.g. viola and violin&#13;
