Recorder

BACHELOR'S PROGRAMME IN MUSIC · 180 CREDITS · 3 YEARS

The Bachelor of Music programme with a specialisation in Recorder is a three-year full-time university programme. The programme is aimed at students who want to deepen their technical and artistic skills, both as soloists and in ensembles, and work as professional recorder players in today's multifaceted music world.

The programme includes:

  • Instrumental Studies
    You will have the opportunity to delve into various music styles, ranging from early music to contemporary music, and explore how they differ in instrumentation, tempering, and ornamentation. Through regular individual lessons, masterclasses, and group lessons, you will develop both technical skills and your artistic expression.
     
  • Chamber Music
    A central part of the education is chamber music, where you will have the chance to play together with other students in smaller ensembles, enhancing your musical sensitivity and communication skills.
     
  • Projects
    You will take part in various thematic collaborations, such as working with the composition students and new music, or the singing class with a focus on specific composers. Collaborations with the Performance programmes in church music are also common.
     
  • Ear Training and Harmony
    You will develop your skills in identifying and analysing musical structures, which are fundamental to understanding and interpreting music in depth. 
     
  • Music and Society
    The courses in 'Music and Society' explore the role and impact of music in various social and cultural contexts.
     
  • Music as a profession
    The course 'Music as a Profession' will give you a thorough insight into the professional aspects of the music industry while preparing you for a career as a musician.
     
  • Degree project (performing and reflective part)
    The performing part (exam concert) constitutes 75% of your degree project. In the exam concert, your artistic and technical expressiveness is made visible. The reflective part makes up 25% of your thesis. The work is based on your own artistic practice and presented in a format of your choice: written, live or pre-recorded.
