Composition at Monash University
Music composition at the School of Music – Conservatorium is offered as a major stream within the Bachelor of Musicand at HonoursMasters and PhD levels. The undergraduate program focuses on developing highly talented and committed students and is designed to give a strong foundation in composition in a number of areas including compositional technique, analysis and theory, repertoire study, as well as electronic and computer technology. Outstanding students are invited to complete an Honours program that focuses on advanced techniques and technology applications. At the postgraduate levels, composition candidates create a research-based folio of original work and prepare a critical commentary that serves to contextualise their compositional investigation.

What’s It about?

This is a blog for staff and students in the Composition Program at Monash University. We intend to keep a record of our study, thinking and compositional projects to document our work, show the world outside what we do and invite comment. We hope that over time the blog will provide useful hints and ideas about the creative processes of composition.
