Candidates will design, create, and realise a musical project, culminating in a public performance event.  The nature of the project should be substantial in terms of quality, sophistication, and professional mastery, but may be of modest or intermediate length.  This project must reflect the highest professional standards and should demonstrate the candidate’s mastery of their particular area of musical specialisation.  The precise nature and content of the project must be approved by the postgraduate music academic committee.  Supporting ancillary studies may be undertaken as relevant to the project and area of specialisation.
