Handbook

Music Craft 4 is one of three Level 2 courses in music performance, composition, and creation. In this course you will advance your performance or composition skills, building on the capacities developed in previous Music Craft modules. You will work closely with a private teacher (in subsidised lessons) and in our guided studios to create a short project that showcases your developing instrumental/vocal/compositional craft and creativity. Through the University’s dynamic ensemble offerings, you will develop your skills in collaborative performance and leadership. You will interact with leading Australian and international music makers in a curated series of masterclasses. Drawing on contemporary performative and compositional practices, you will also be introduced to graphic and textual notation, use of extended techniques, and aspects of interdisciplinarity in artistic practice which are essential to developing and sustaining a career in creative music making in the 21st century.
