A&H 398 Advanced Performing II

Content

Admission to the Music Performance track is dependent upon an audi­tion. Exam­ples of pieces appropriate for audition can be found on the Fontys website. In order to be ad­mitted to the Music Per­for­mance track you have to express your interest to the coordinator of the Music Track (Prof. Dr. Albert Clement). If ap­plication seems possible, an entrance exam will follow. During this exam your music­al and in­stru­men­tal/vocal de­velopment will be tested according to the admission require­ments listed in the Fontys Conservatorium Brochure. This will decide if you will be admitted to the Per­for­mance track. Those with sufficient talent but not mastering the agreed entry standard for the Music Per­formance course yet may be admitted to a preliminary route. They may bene­fit from the 100-level His­tory and Theory Courses, but will not receive credits from RA for the deve­lop­ment of their in­stru­men­tal-vocal skills until they have reached the agreed standard.
