This summer, we’re launching three dynamic programs designed for students ages 12 to 18 each with a 5-day and a 7-day option. These programs are available both online and in-person, offering flexibility to suit your needs.
These intensive programs combine scoring, mockup techniques, music technology, and orchestration, along with a selection of electives to expand your learning. In addition to the standard programs, each program features a PLUS+ version, which takes the educational and creative experience to the next level.
Further student support options include:
Accommodation at our Halls of Residence, with 24/7 student supervision.
Airport transfers to ensure your safe arrival and departure.
Breakfast and lunch provided throughout your stay.
PLUS+ options
A Pre-Program BootCamp to get your music ready for performance.
Guest speakers and masterclasses from industry professionals.
Flamenco and Paella events to immerse you in local culture.
Award-winning composers teaching you in person.
Orchestral and ensemble recordings of your compositions.
A Gala Concert where your music will be performed in a 400-seat theatre, live-streamed for friends and family to enjoy.
For individual schools or school groups, we offer the opportunity to request specific classes or even create an entire genre-based program, such as video game scoring, tailored to your student needs. Expect 7 hours of teaching per day, providing a comprehensive and immersive experience.
