They will be exposed to the practical and theoretical practices of performing arts across cultures.
Our faculty consists of leading musicians and allied arts experts who encourage students to think about dance beyond performance and focus on music-making in a creative environment. Students learn to support their practice with research in music arranging, composing, performance, therapy, pedagogy, art administration, and study music in its historical, social, cultural and digital contexts.
Students get a chance to work closely with experienced teachers, professional musicians and composers in classes with live/recorded music. Moreover, they can refine their practice in well-equipped studio. As an extension of the learning received during the current crisis, the students will also learn the use and control of digital media to promote and present the performing arts.
