This 12-month Master’s degree aims to help students improve their specialised understanding of techniques, advanced processes and tools, through which they will create original works that shape their unique artistic personality.

This Master’s degree offers training in contemporary music at the highest level, helping students become aware of the critique of musical disciplines; and learn the skills, techniques and methodologies needed to work at the highest level.

Teachers are extremely dedicated and attentive to students to develop them in this industry; they will work closely with students so that their musical development is significant.

During the first term of this course, students will develop and record a set of songs and compositions that will later, in the second term, go through an advanced process of mixing and mastering.

Students will create and try different strategies to launch, develop and market their professional characters, and during the summer, they will improve their creative and professional activity, finally managing to create an album and a score for a feature film.

Overall, the programme aims to:

refine your specialist creative practice;
enable producers to develop a significant body of original creative work;
develop a distinctive artistic personality or voice;
prepare you to lead and continuously develop in professional performance-based industry settings

Course Length: 1 year;
