With a sector-leading 20 hours per year of weekly individual instrumental or vocal tuition, modules in instrumental or vocal teaching, and ear-opening music history modules which will broaden your musical horizons, this course allows you to pursue your passion for music in ways that lead to many career pathways.

The music facilities at Northumbria situate brand new musical instruments inside carefully considered spaces. Our world-class Steinway Model B piano is in The Great Hall, located in the Grade II Listed Sutherland Building, which is also where new and spacious practice facilities are to be found.

Facilities are shared between small class sizes, meaning that you can readily access practice rooms to play, compose, critique, conduct, plan, prepare, experiment, coordinate, and improvise.

How does studying Music at Northumbria University help with employability?

Our aim is to produce graduates who are creative thinkers, with the ability to apply their in-depth knowledge of music in a professional setting. At Northumbria, our partnerships with cultural organisations, such as Newcastle Cathedral and Newcastle Lit & Phil Library, expose you to real working and performance environments. We work with music hubs (which deliver instrumental/vocal teaching to schools), such as Music Partnership North, to provide you with opportunities to go out on teaching placements. In collaboration with Trinity Exam Board, we have hosted several events relating to music teaching and graded examinations. Your engagement with teaching opportunities, and your growing understanding of the music industry, will shape you into a musician ready for a freelance portfolio career and to set yourself up in business.
