The Bachelor of Music at EUC brings together those whose passion is music and whose ambitions are to make a career out of doing what they love. Our students are exposed to artistic and scientific aspects of music in areas such as conducting, composition, musicology, music therapy and music education with teachers who hold international distinctions. Our faculty and students perform side-by-side and participate in major local, European and international music collaborations in a variety of genres from Jazz to Classical, Rock to Alternative. Students take first instrument courses throughout their studies, participate in chamber or large ensembles and take part in festivals, international conferences and Erasmus exchanges. The Music program equips students with the knowledge and skills required for further study at the postgraduate level or for careers as music teachers and professional musicians in solo and ensemble performance contexts.
