General Information

Unit Synopsis

Through foundation studies in ensemble music performance, you will be able to synthesize your specialised performance skills within the context of publicly presented music ensemble performances. These music ensemble activities give you the opportunity to work in various performance, technical and creative roles as appropriate so that you have the opportunity to develop foundation skills in problem-solving, creative, self-regulated and critical thinking, within a team-based environment. NOTE: On occasion, as part of your studies, you may be required to participate in performance activities in various settings and locations (off campus) that may contribute to your assessment in this unit.
