Welcome to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music
Music is at the centre of all people’s lives in the 21st century. Our playlists enable us to
access music from cultures and styles from all over the world. Musicians are an amazing
group of people because we are the ones who are able to create, re-create, invent, and
interpret music that is of our generation, our international culture, and from times past. Our
exploration of music through time connects us to previous generations and projects into
the future. It is an exciting time to learn to be a musician as new technology enables us to
connect to listeners in so many different ways. A degree in music will set you up to be
someone who can make a difference to others’ lives through your skills and humanity. Very
few people can really make music at an expert level. At the Sydney Conservatorium you
will have the opportunity to contribute to this vibrant expression of living and develop the
expertise to sustain a lifetime of musical work.
I invite you to share in our extraordinary and dynamic musical world. I invite you to become one of our graduates – one of the many soloists,
orchestral musicians, composers, academics and educators, critics, writers, and arts administrators who are integral to shaping the world through
music.
Professor Anna Reid
Dean, Sydney Conservatorium of Music

Bachelor of Music (Music Education)
The Bachelor of Music (Music Education) degree is intended primarily as a professional training course for students wishing to become music
teachers in a school environment. The music education degree course meets requirements of professional bodies responsible for the accreditation
of school music teachers.
In New South Wales the major employer of school music teachers is the NSW Department of Education and Communities (DEC), which stipulates
specific musical and pedagogical skills and knowledge for a teacher to be certified as employable in departmental schools and other systems
such as non government and Catholic systemic schools.
In addition to music teaching methods, music history and analysis, performance and compositional skills and knowledge, students must have
attained information and communication technology competencies and have developed an understanding of children with special educational
needs.
A significant component (80-86 days) of the course must include practical teaching experience in schools. Graduating teachers also need to
meet the Teaching Standards of the Australian Institute for Teaching and School Leadership (AITSL) under the jurisdiction of the New South
Wales Institute of Teachers, a professional body responsible for accreditation of all NSW teachers working in schools. Graduating teachers need
to demonstrate knowledge of subject content, pedagogy (including learning, teaching and evaluation strategies), NSW curriculum requirements
and the needs of socially, culturally, ethnically, physically and intellectually diverse groups of students in schools.
In order to satisfy these requirements, the Music Education degree has a large core of mandated music education units of study. The major focus
is on developing teaching skills through studies in education, music education, ensemble pedagogy and music technology.
Students undertake extended Professional Experience sessions in schools supported by both school teachers and experienced music education
lecturers from the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Music Education specialists also develop practical, compositional, or research skills by
taking a minimum of four semesters of Principal Study in an instrument, voice, composition or musicology. Students also take part in large
ensembles (eg, Choir, Wind Symphony, Early Music Ensemble) and other performance units. All students take core studies in aural perception
and harmony (or jazz music skills for jazz students), studies in analysis, history and culture, and music technology.

Master of Music Studies (Composition)
The Master of Music Studies (Composition) is a three-semester coursework degree that focusses on the acquisition of high-level composition
technique. It provides the opportunity for those interested in composition, or with a background in composition, to develop their compositional
style, technique and ideas within a rigorous musical environment.
The Master of Music Studies degree is based entirely upon coursework components that enable students to gain practical skills in composition.
Students have weekly composition lessons with a tutor and will take part in a specific composition class geared towards Master of Music Studies
(Composition) enrolled students.
Composition skills that students may acquire in this degree include the areas of compositional style, instrumentation, technology, performance
genres and technique.
The Master of Music Studies also provides for the acquisition of skills useful to life as a professional composer, such as conducting, sound
recording, research skills and concert curation. Students enrolled in the Master of Music Studies work weekly with student performers in the first
two semesters, allowing them to try out new ideas and hear them immediately translated into sound.
There are no genre restrictions or guidelines as to music that students may create in this degree: this is negotiated between each student and
their tutor. High level notation and music theory skills are strongly recommended.
In contrast to the Master of Music (Composition) degree, composers in the Master of Music Studies degree are not required to write a thesis or
dissertation. The Master of Music Studies (Composition) degree contains a greater degree of practical coursework components specifically
relating to composition.
Students who successfully complete a Master of Music Studies (Composition) degree may apply for entry into the Doctor of Musical Arts (DMA)
in composition and creative work.
Students may opt in their fourth full-time semester of the degree to apply for an internship as a professional composer.
Course structure
This degree is structured around a mandatory 72 credit point (3 full time semesters or up to 6 part time semesters) with an optional 24 credit
point further specialisation in the form of a Composition Internship.

Students work for one hour per week individually with a vocal coach
and for two hours in ensemble class as scheduled, enabling them to
explore and refine their learning of the repertoire prepared for aspects
of coursework including mainstage productions, performances of solo
and audition repertoire, masterclasses and internal and external
concerts. These units impart to students the wide range of skills
needed to successfully bring their participation in an opera production
from the first day of music rehearsal to a successful performance
outcome. Students develop the skills to work effectively with coaches
and repetiteurs, and to understand the function of coaching within an
opera company, becoming in the process independent learners.

Master's Preliminary Course
Candidates who demonstrate through audition, interview and/or portfolio of work that they have a capacity to undertake the Master of Music
degree in Performance, Composition, Musicology or Music Education, but whose prior learning is deficient in a specific area may, on the advice
of the Graduate Studies Committee be admitted to the Master's Preliminary Course.
Programs are designed around the individual needs of particular students on the advice of the admission panel. The course normally represents
15 credit points per semester and is subject to pro-rata fee payment. Assessment in this course consists of the following:
• completion of assessment requirements of specified undergraduate units of study and Student Learning Centre units as stipulated by the
Associate Dean, and
• an essay of 5000 words on a negotiated topic, demonstrating competence in research and academic writing.

Master of Music
Master of Music
The Master of Music research degrees can be taken in the following disciplines:
Candidates are encouraged to develop skills in, and an understanding of, all aspects in the successful completion of a composition project.
Candidates are expected to research compositional approaches of other composers, practitioners and artists, and to create musical works based
upon the results of this research.
These musical outcomes may take place on the small and larger scales, and should demonstrate the development of a high-level creative
approach, substantial composition technique and the initial establishment of a compositional voice within the national music sector.
Course structure
The Master of Music (Composition) can be completed either in four semesters of full-time study or eight semesters of part-time study. There is
an expectation that work on all aspects of the thesis, including the composition portfolio and the research component, will be pursued concurrently
and at an even rate across the duration of the candidature. Demands of candidates in terms of craft skills and imaginative writing are high.
The following are benchmark examples of portfolio size, and should be referred to by intending students writing the 1500-2000 word research
summary when applying for entry into the course.
• a set of solo saxophone etudes (15 minutes), a saxophone quartet (10 minutes), a piece for large chamber ensemble (10 minutes), a concerto
for saxophone and orchestra (25 minutes)
• two chamber works of 12 minutes each for 8 players, an orchestral piece (10 minutes), a piano sonata (19 minutes)
• a 15-minute work for woodwind quintet + CD, a music theatre work of 45 minutes
• a string quartet with didjeridu and erhu (20 minutes), a chamber work for mixed sextet (5 minutes), a work for dancers and chamber ensemble
(14 minutes), a sound installation (variable duration), four pieces for large ensemble with jazz quartet (total 12 minutes)
• a music theatre work of 75 minutes
• works created as part of the National Women Composers’ Development Program
Music compositions must demonstrate the aesthetic value of the theoretical investigation and must be included in the submitted portfolio. Where
software creation is a significant component of the work then a balance between music composition and software creation shall be negotiated
with the supervisor, but a minimum of two 12-15 minute works will be required under any circumstance.
It is expected that the works contain no more than 30 percent of improvisation with the work being at least 70 percent fully scored. If a candidate
would like to include a greater percentage of improvisation than the 30 percent standard, this must be negotiated with and approved by the
supervisor and Chair. The duration of such works should be at the upper limits of the durations given below.
• four small ensemble works of 6-8 minutes' duration for 8-10 instruments
• two small ensemble works of 6-8 minutes' duration for 8-10 instruments + string group
• two big band works of 6-8 minutes' duration
one third stream (confluent) work for 3-4 soloists + rhythm section and chamber group of 8-10 minutes' duration
• one third stream (confluent) work for 3-4 soloists and full orchestra (no rhythm) of 8-10 minutes' duration

Doctor of Philosophy
Doctor of Philosophy
The degree of Doctor of Philosophy is a research degree awarded for a thesis considered to be a substantially original contribution to the subject
concerned. The Doctor of Philosophy is offered in all faculties of the University and is governed by the resolutions of the Senate and the Academic
Board of the University of Sydney for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. The normal minimum period of candidature is six full-time semesters
(or the part-time equivalent), while the normal maximum length of full-time PhD candidature is eight semesters. Full-time candidates for research
degrees do not keep to the normal semesters but work continuously throughout the year except for a period of four weeks’ annual recreation
leave.
For the rules and guidelines pertaining to the degree and candidature, students should refer to the following:
The most recent versions of these rules are found the Policy Register sydney.edu.au/policies.
On completion of a course of advanced study and research, candidates present the results of the work undertaken for examination in a thesis
that demonstrates an original contribution to knowledge, and forms a cohesive and unified whole. The thesis shall be either:
The normal upper limit of a PhD thesis is 80,000 words (not including appendices).This may be exceeded with the permission of the Conservatorium
Research Committee; however, the absolute upper limit is 100,000 words. In the case of option 2, the normal upper limit will be the equivalent
of 80,000 words; the proportion of creative work and dissertation components may vary and in cases where the two components are of equal
weight, the dissertation will be no more than 40,000 words.
Some coursework may be required during the candidature but this is not a major component. Candidates are normally expected to present and
discuss their research in an appropriate seminar each year. The University’s rules of Annual Review and progression apply.
Admission
The minimum admission requirement for the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is the possession of a relevant master’s degree or a relevant bachelor’s
degree with first or upper second class honours. Alternatively, an applicant may be admitted having passed a qualifying examination at a standard
equivalent to the bachelor’s degree with first or upper second class honours. This qualifying examination could be completion of a period of
advanced study and research towards a relevant master’s degree at the University of Sydney, at such a standard as would demonstrate to the
satisfaction of the faculty that the candidate is suitably prepared in the particular field of study to undertake candidature for a PhD. See University
of Sydney (Higher Degree by Research) Rule 2011
In addition to these academic requirements, the Conservatorium must be satisfied that your proposed course of advanced study and research
is appropriate and acceptable to the faculty; that you have in addition to the academic qualifications the necessary training and ability to pursue
the proposed course of study and research; and that there are sufficient supervisory and other resources and facilities available to enable your
candidature to be completed successfully.
Faculties are particularly concerned to ensure before admission to PhD candidature that there is the likelihood of a successful outcome. At the
Conservatorium admission to candidature involves the acceptance of a research proposal presented as part of the application. This proposal
needs to be 1500 to 2000 words in length with additional bibliography, and should include at least the following:
Following admission, PhD candidature is probationary for the first 12 months of enrolment.
Language requirements
An IELTS level of 7.0 with no component below 6.5 is required for entry to PhD candidature.
How to apply
Intending candidates should refer to the admission and degree requirements in the University of Sydney Calendar and the University of Sydney
Postgraduate Studies Handbook. They should discuss their application and intended research with the chair of the relevant unit and the Associate
Dean (Research). Research Supervisor Connect provides information on supervisors and their research fields.
