    Bachelor of Music (Honours)

    About

    The Bachelor of Music Honours is characterised by the concept of musical practice as a research-led process. The core of this program is a substantial piece of original research realised through either a standalone 20,000 word written document, or a project which is presented as a combination of performance, composition, recording, or other creative output and a 10,000 word written document.
