I love studying music because it’s like studying in one big family as most musicians play in all sorts of bands, orchestras and choirs together as well as just seeing each other in lectures. Because it’s a small course, it’s a real bonding subject and you get to know your classmates and tutors/lectures really well!

I have loved every minute of my course and have learnt so much about other subjects within music but also I've learnt quite a lot about myself as a musician. I'm more confident and I've experimented in other genres of music that I wouldn't have played before, I've been pushed out of my comfort zone enough to really enjoy myself read more

I've met my personal tutor once and he's leaving this year so felt I've had little support. Some of the lecturers are very late on handing work back even though there is a set time for them to give it back. read more

Again, paying £60 for a slide show is not what it's all about. The tutors weren't helpful. Poor attitude. And no sort of feedback. read more
