Music Management Fundamentals
Music Management Fundamentals lays advanced theoretical foundations for the practical work you will learn to do later in the Programme. Why is the international music business organised the way it is? What forces – technological, economic, political and creative – have driven industry developments in the past, and where are they likely to drive it in future? How do audiences consume music? How are consumption patterns changing? What motivates musicians to make music; and why do audiences want to listen? These questions matter because they define the context in which music managers have to operate.
What do managers actually do? What do managers have in common with entrepreneurs? How might the roles of manager and entrepreneur differ, and how might they be combined? What impact can you, as manager, have to ensure ethical practices?
To answer questions like these, Music Management Fundamentals will introduce you to a set of academic theories and show you how the theories can be used both to explain the structure of the music industry and to predict some of the changes likely to affect the industry in years ahead. -

Music sources and transmission
What constitutes music? What constitutes its source, and how is it transmitted to musicians and audiences? And how has this changed over the centuries?
In this module, we will explore and challenge traditional narratives about the primacy of written music, providing you with opportunities to explore and engage critically with the impact, value, and limitations of different approaches to the study of what constitutes a musical “work.” We will engage with questions of class, inclusivity, music alphabetization and education, oral transmission in global contexts, improvisation, and the role of recordings in capturing, preserving and transmitting music, as well as the materiality and immateriality of music as cultural heritage. -

Music Therapy 2: Beneath the Surface
The aim of this module is to look beneath the surface - challenging assumptions made about music being therapeutic and exploring how to prove music is effective as therapy. Drawing on the knowledge gleaned in the second year module, the module aims to develop practical music therapy skills through participation in workshops and a placement. There is an opportunity to learn about less common clinical settings and current, innovative medical research projects at the University.
For students interested in possible careers in music therapy and community music, the lectures provide vital knowledge and insight. It has also been particularly helpful to students interested in pursuing careers in education. This module is equally valuable to students wanting to explore music from a different angle.
