Objectives

On completion of this module, students should have gained experience in practical music-making through participation in recognised ensembles. Common objectives are to develop stylistic awareness and ensemble playing skills, and to stimulate the imagination by interactive learning. Students' self- and peer- assessment skills should have reached some maturity and, at level 3/4, students are expected to take a leading role, musically, organisationally, or in both spheres. Students should clearly take responsibility in the preparation and delivery of a successful performance event.

Syllabus

This varies from semester to semester and from student to student. Common categories of activity are: orchestral project, choral project, brass project, wind project, and new music ensemble. However, projects are designed to reflect the competencies and orientations of the current cohort of student and do respond to areas of concern in the department's academic teaching and research. In addition, there may be the possibility for more advanced students (most appropriately those at level 3, 4 for BMus) to undertake smaller-scale chamber/group activity as part of an agreed package of project activity. The nature of an individual's commitment in projects is negotiated with the module coordinator and ensemble directors with clear mechanisms for statement of intent, monitoring of progress and reflective review (incorporating elements of self- and peer-assessment.)
