The music profession is rapidly changing
Careers in music are more flexible and international in scope than ever before. Increasingly, musicians are collaborating with practitioners in other arts and societal cross-sector settings. Today’s musicians must be capable of working in a variety of contexts. The Joint Music Master for New Audiences and Innovative Practice is designed to meet these demands.
This new and innovative programme is a joint project from higher music education institutions in four European countries. The Royal Conservatoire in The Hague in the Netherlands has started with the Joint Master in September '09. As from 2010 the Master will be offered in London (UK), Groningen (NL) and Reykjavik (IS) as well.
Students entering this Master programme must be in posession of a Bachelor's degree in Music. The compulsory modules Action Research, Leading & Guiding, Performance & Communication and Project Management & Entrepreneurship are at the heart of the programme as well as mentoring.
What are you being trained for in this programme? You learn to develop and lead creative projects in diverse artistic, community and cross-sector settings. The purpose is learning about creating new audiences and developing your leadership skills in various artistic and social contexts. In addition you can choose from a variety of optionals which fit your personal pathway.
The Master combines studying at your home institution with studying abroad at a partner institution. More about the programme
