Learning to be
a multifaceted
musician
The Bachelor of Music gives
students great opportunities
to work with incredible singers
and instrumentalists. My
experience at the Melbourne
Conservatorium of Music
will help me understand
more aspects of music so I
can become a multifaceted
musician rather than a one-
dimensional performer.

FURTHER STUDY OPTIONS
Many Bachelor of Music graduates
further their musical development
and specialisation through the fourth-
year Bachelor of Music (Honours).
A range of graduate coursework
and research music programs are
also available in music therapy,
performance teaching, opera
performance, conducting, composition,
musicology, ethnomusicology and
music performance. Program offerings
range from graduate certifcate to PhD,
including intensive-mode professional
development study options.
There is also an opportunity as a music
graduate to extend your study across
the University in areas such as arts
management, marketing, humanities,
teaching and law.
For more information on graduate study
see pages 14–15.
COURSE STRUCTURE
The Bachelor of Music requires the
successful completion of 300 points of
study, comprising 225 points of music
subjects, 50 points of breadth studies
and 25 points of free subjects (either
music or breadth).
All students in the Bachelor of
Music undertake a common frst-
year experience in which you will
pursue four key areas of study in
music: performance skills; historical,
theoretical and contextual studies; aural
studies; and applied skills.
From second year, students can follow
major pathways, retaining the capacity
to tailor subject selections and move
between majors while keeping graduate
study and career options open.
