Preparation


As you are embarking on this course you will already have a proven enthusiasm for music technology and a willingness to investigate a wide range of popular styles. Listen widely and critically to a range of music throughout the course, and should develop your knowledge and understanding of music technology by subscribing to a periodical such as Sound on Sound, Music Tech Magazine or Future Music.


Concerts and extra-curricular activities are an integral part of the course and several will be arranged throughout the year. However, you are strongly advised to take the initiative and attend events which interest you or which are particularly relevant to your studies.


In advance of the course you should take any opportunity to advance your keyboard skills, visit online sites such as www.musicradar.com and, if possible, develop your skills using Logic Pro software. Undertake preparatory reading online around 20th century popular music styles focusing on their development and interrelation. Listen to and log examples.


Theory to Grade 3 standard is strongly advised from the start of the course and a reasonable level of keyboard skills in addition to an ability to perform as an instrumentalist or vocalist are both highly desirable. Students might consider purchasing an appropriate level ABRSM theory workbook and accompanying music theory guide.
