Take your musical creativity further with this innovative BMus (Hons) Composition (Film/Theatre). The course sits at the heart of the London College of Music and represents a creative hub for forward-thinking musical minds. <br/><br/>In line with today’s creative industries, our new BMus (Hons) Composition course offers a unique twofold pathway with specialisms in either Film Composition or Theatre Composition, with the facility to undertake optional modules from both the Film and Theatre strands to create a more generic course of study. <br/><br/>These pathways represent the most significant routes contemporary composers take in their professional life and aim to directly bridge your university studies with both the creative industries and your future career. <br/><br/>The Film and Theatre pathways allow you to engage with different genres: the Theatre pathway covers composition for musical theatre, opera and experimental music-theatre; the Film pathway encompasses composition for film, television and video games.<br/><br/>Exploring a variety of compositional styles, methods and aesthetics that range from historical to 21st-century fashions, the course aims to develop your technical and creative skills as a composer. Ultimately, the modules encompassed within the course will enable you to develop your own voice as a composer, broaden your technical and artistic horizons, and create exciting networking opportunities. <br/><br/>The Theatre and Film Composition pathways offer a balanced spread of practice-based activities, historical-theoretical studies, and industry-related insights.<br/><br/>Alongside a traditional exploration of compositional practices – through modules such as Composition and Harmony, and Composition and Orchestration – the course provides a unique focus on the relationship between music and narrative, which you will encounter in the modules Music and Narrative: Concepts and Music and Narrative: Case Studies.<br/><br/>This emphasis will allow you to explore music and composition in relation to drama, narration, discourse, images and action; elements that will strengthen and expand your compositional vision and ideas. The Level 5 and 6 (Year 2 and 3) optional modules will determine your composition specialism and pathway.<br/><br/>The course will allow you to gain a robust understanding of the dynamics of the creative industries, through modules such as Business Skills for the Music Industry and Promoting your career, as well as develop and discuss your portfolio of works, which will allow you to promote yourself professionally.
