Curriculum
The Master of Music in Collaboration, Curation, and Creative Performance provides a comprehensive musical education.
During the initial phase, you'll engage in courses encompassing academic, research, entrepreneurial, business, and creative foundations. Our curriculum celebrates a wide array of musical cultures, instruments, traditions, and genres. It emphasizes both collaboration and curation in the creative process.
These courses equip you for an experiential placement in an arts-based community or performance setting. You'll learn to navigate the dynamic landscape of Canada’s multicultural and interdisciplinary arts scene, taking into consideration Indigenous perspectives on musical significance within society and the arts community.
In the concluding phase of the MMus C3 program, you'll join forces to produce and curate a new work or reinterpret existing pieces for a Major Artistic Project. This live performance incorporates crucial aspects of public musicianship, including interactive elements, spoken or projected introductions, inclusive language, and mindfulness of positionality. If other forms of performance art are integrated, it's imperative to engage with them authentically and with respect.
