Students will receive tuition in their area of practical study. Vocal and instrumental students will refine their technique, musical, stylistic and interpretative awareness in an individually designed program of technical exercises and repertoire. Formative feedback in individual and group settings will be provided across the semester.
In order to contextualise their education within the best practices of local, national and international standards, students are expected to work competently and productively both alone and in groups.
The subject involves participation in individual lessons, instrument/voice classes, concert class and/or assigned ensemble activities. In order to ensure the highest level of performance preparation, 100% attendance is expected.
