The Master of Music in Performance: Orchestral Artistry programme is one year full-time and the Master of Performance (Guildhall Artist): Orchestral Artistry is two years full-time. Although they are different programmes, MPerf students study their first year with the MMus students. Orchestral Artistry is an exciting professional specialism for advanced instrumentalists seeking a career in orchestral playing. This specialism is delivered in association with one of the world’s leading orchestras, the London Symphony Orchestra (LSO) and it offers a course of study which is both highly distinctive and ground-breaking in scope, in a context akin to a professional environment. Students take part in orchestral repertoire training, audition preparation/practice and coaching sessions with LSO players, as well as LSO rehearsal sit-ins, masterclasses and education and community projects.
Getting in
As the university states it
Part Two represents progression for the student in terms of depth and breadth of repertoire within a project-based structure that mimics, in a controlled environment, professional practice at the highest level. Students who continue to Part Two (progression criteria apply, see Part One below) will be awarded, on its successful completion, a Master of Performance (Guildhall Artist). Part One concentrates on the student’s intense activities in Principal Study, but also includes core Contextual Studies and a wide range of Elective opportunities.
