Our study areas

We nurture talent in a supportive environment

We support the next generation of versatile, world-class musicians and performance artists in composition, technology, public events, and pedagogy.

We offer expert supervision in traditional fields such as performance, composition, and musicology, and in contemporary fields of digital technologies and sound design for computer games, film, virtual reality (VR) and artificial intelligence (AI).
