Master of Arts [M.A] [Music] From University of Canterbury

Much of the rapid development of the music industry has occurred very recently, in the last 25 years, and is the result of the explosion of digital technology and re-definition of social communities and culture. This has opened up new areas of expertise for music professionals, though not eclipsing the more traditional roles of teaching, conducting, music leadership and performing as a soloist, in a small group, orchestra or band.

• The School of Music offers an exciting range of courses at all levels in performance, composition, digital music, ethno-musicology, music history and research, musicianship and music education.
• The Bachelor of Music (MusB) opens up a wide number of study pathways for students and a broad range of career opportunities for aspiring professional musicians.
