Music is a language. You can think of music theory as the ‘reading and writing’ whereas musicianship is the ‘speaking and listening’. Musicianship is all about developing the essential skills that make music feel natural, such as understanding rhythm, harmony and expression.
This six-week course will鈥痗ultivate practical, intuitive skills that bring your music to life, beyond the technicalities of mastering an instrument. They help you connect with music on a deeper level, training you to identify what you're hearing and respond to it instinctively.
The course is suitable for musicians who sing, play an instrument or make music electronically. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced musician, these lessons can be tailored to your preferences and abilities.
This course is open to 小蓝视频 students, staff, and members of the University Choir.

The lessons will be approximately 50% practical鈥�(musicianship), and鈥�50% written (theory). The two different types of learning are tailored to work together. Lessons will be taught in small groups allowing you to practice collaborative skills and to learn from other students, as well as the teacher.
Each week you will be set practical and written activities to develop your skills. You’ll need to allow around an hour each week to do these in preparation for the following week. As part of the course, you will have the option to work towards graded Music Theory exams if you wish to.
