COURSE CURRICULUM

The Masters in Music Production is built around a series of compulsory modules that combine technical expertise, creative exploration, and research skills to prepare students for careers in the music industry. Approaches to Recording introduces a range of recording techniques and philosophies, helping students develop a clear creative vision and professional workflow in the studio. Performance in the Studio focuses on the interaction between artists, producers, and engineers, emphasizing how to capture and enhance live performance within recording sessions. The Development of Audio Technology explores the evolution of tools and innovations that have shaped the industry, providing context for current practices and future trends. Combining Sounds encourages experimentation with layering, arranging, and blending different audio elements to achieve distinctive productions. Manipulating Sounds goes further into the creative potential of audio processing, enabling students to transform and shape sound using advanced techniques. Research Methods develops the academic and analytical skills necessary for critical inquiry and supports preparation for the Masters Project. The program culminates in the Masters Project, an independent creative or research-based production that allows students to showcase their technical abilities and artistic vision. Together, these modules provide a comprehensive foundation for innovation and leadership in music production.
