This is a practical performance-based MA, in which you will demonstrate your critical awareness of current practice in your own specialist area through your playing or singing. This can only be done with a fluent level of technical and expressive skill, and the range of support included for the development of performance skills is extensive, including weekly individual tuition in your instrument or voice, group performance skills development each week, masterclass attendance at Chichester and at other institutions, ensemble participation, and a consultation with an external specialist each semester.
