Profile
The Bachelor in Music Education provides for the academic, artistic, and professional requirements of those wishing to become music teachers at the secondary school level (including Northern Ireland). Not all graduates choose to teach, however. Some, on graduation, pursue further study at master’s and doctoral levels in performance, conducting, and composition and quite a few pursue postgraduate courses in the media and the music business. The degree is taught in partnership with the Technical University of Dublin Conservatory of Music and Drama and, on alternate years, with the Royal Irish Academy of Music. The degree is an integrated course of study designed to equip students with a high standard of performance in their principal instrument (including voice) and competence in related musical skills e.g. conducting, keyboard skills, and performance in choral, orchestral, and chamber music groups. The course also provides a solid grounding in harmony, counterpoint, composition, orchestration, analysis, history of music, and Irish traditional music. The majority of subjects are based on the traditions and practices of classical (or art) music, from the medieval period to the present day. Students registering for the course in September 2021 will study at Trinity and TU Dublin Conservatoire.
