About MMUS Music Performance
Performers, directors, and arrangers seeking a practice-based postgraduate year can review the MMUS Music Performance at the University for the Creative Arts — a professionally focused master's available full-time or part-time with weekday scheduling for UK students. Existing notes describe refining instrumental skills, leading ensembles, and creating compositions and arrangements that demonstrate a distinctive artistic personality through a significant body of original work.
Compared with the sibling MMUS Music Production listing, use this page when your emphasis is performance, direction, and live or ensemble practice rather than studio production workflows. That distinction matters for portfolio focus and weekly studio versus rehearsal demands.
We invent neither fees, industry placement guarantees, nor automatic recording contracts. Confirm current UCA entry, mode, and assessment expectations directly before applying.
