School of Music · ANU College of Arts and Social Sciences
This course enables students to initiate a capstone music project that integrates both performance and composition, allowing for greater emphasis on one area depending on the student’s artistic direction. The project will center on a live music context and demonstrate the development of original creative work through blended practical, theoretical, and research approaches. Students will develop a detailed project proposal in consultation with the course convenor, identifying artistic goals and feasibility within a live setting. The focus is on early-stage project planning, contextual analysis, and milestone delivery.
