Music
Short courses for the public
Music can be studied from a wide variety of perspectives: by reading, listening, performing and composing; by studying composers and musical forms; by exploring the music of the past and the present, and the music of other countries; and by investigating the relationships between the various parts of a composition.
Some music courses can be studied for credit which means they can count towards a recognised qualification.
