Course Description
Learn about the power of sharing music in the community. Apply your talent to the field of community music and make a difference.
Experience how you can use music to improve people's lives. Develop your musical abilities and discover your strengths as a community musician. Become part of a vibrant musical network as you engage with the International Centre of Community Music. Based on our York campus, it's a chance to enrich your learning opportunities.
Your work in the community can include music that spans genre and culture. The study of music should not be about one genre. It should be eclectic and embrace every musician, every style, background and culture. When you study with us you do not just learn about classical, jazz and rock. You also learn about music from around the world and unexpected genres. This will help you expand your repertoire and give you versatile skills for working in the community.
We will focus on your ability to make, perform and facilitate music in different settings. You will learn through experience, taking your learning out of the classroom and into the community. You will have the chance to work with children, the homeless, mental health service users and older people as you work in:
Schools
Nurseries and daycare centres
Nursing homes
Hospitals
You will complete a long term placement with a local community music provider. By doing this, you will learn how to plan workshops, and evaluate your sessions.
We will challenge you to realise your creative potential. To explore your self expression and develop an understanding of music's place in society. You will actively collaborate with experienced musicians, community members, artists and arts organisations to build your professional networks.
Alongside your practical learning, you will also explore the theoretical aspects of music. Working alongside your classmates, postgraduate students and your lecturers, you will research and evaluate artistic concepts and processes.
