In addition to the practical aspects of music, this popular music course allows you to explore the cultural and historical aspects of this global phenomenon, so you will develop your knowledge as well as your talent. Although technology is not the focus of the course, you will learn how to work with contemporary studio technology from a creative perspective, which will allow you to develop your musical interests and career prospects.
You will study at the Atrium, at our Cardiff campus: a purpose-built facility that provides a rich creative environment and plenty of chances to gain experience across complementary disciplines. For a broader understanding of industry and the workplace, you may collaborate with your fellow students in performance, composition, recording and research. This approach will bring together expertise from theatre, studio recording, live sound, radio, television, film, journalism, interactive media, design and more.
