A91 Certificate IV in Music (Jazz) | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Certificate IV in Music (Jazz) is a one year vocational program designed for jazz musicians who wish to develop their skills in performance and widen their musical backgrounds. On successful completion of the course students may audition for other courses within the Western Australian Academy of Performing Arts.
The Units of Competence from the nationally accredited Music (CUS09) Training Package are clustered within the course delivery units. These delivery units form training in the industry areas of Concert Practice, Ensemble, Improvisation, Workshop, Aural, History, Music Industry, Music Software, Copyright, OH&S, Second Study Piano and Theory. Details of the specific delivery arrangement for each Unit of Competence are available from the relevant course coordinator or the Program Director of Music. It is expected and strongly recommended that students will maintain one-on-one musical tuition on a private basis. These lessons should be sufficient for students to develop their skills to complete the performance element of this course and be competitive for audition for work or further study.
