Master of Composition - Composition for Screen MComp

The MComp is designed to prepare you for life as a professional composer. You will work alongside world-leading musicians to develop your composition skills to the highest international standard. <br/><br/>Usually taken over two years, the course is tailored to those who aim to enter the profession as practitioners at the highest level, and who need to meet the current practical demands of the music profession. With a uniquely immersive conservatoire experience, you will be at the heart of a dynamic environment where creativity and collaboration thrive.  <br/><br/>We also offer Composition for Screen as a principal study specialism for students looking to hone their skills and develop professional connections in music for film, TV and gaming. <br/><br/>The MComp qualification can also provide the basis for further artistic development through the RCM’s Level 8 Artist Diploma in Composition. <br/><br/>London is one of the busiest production centres in the world for the film, television ad advertising industries, and studying here will see you at the heart of this fertile creative environment. The Composition for Screen programme offers one-to-one tuition by leading composers and experts, emphasising a practical approach to this area of study. Group tutorials and lectures focus on practical skills, critical self-reflection, historical, aesthetic and narrative considerations. There are performance opportunities of your work by fellow RCM students as well as visiting and resident professional ensembles. You will have the opportunity to attend networking events and workshops with film, television, and new media professionals as well as collaborations and joint tutorials with students from London-based film schools. <br/><br/>This course is also available on a part-time basis over 3 years upon request. <br/><br/>Please note that due to the intensive nature of the Composition for Screen course, it is not possible to accommodate study of a secondary specialism.
