Type of course
The Theory department of the Conservatory offers training in music theory, musical setting and ear training. Composition covers subjects including structure, instrumentation, arrangement and composition techniques for new music, as well as music analysis and subjects from musical history.

So these course stages can be completed meaningfully, and for your own checks, we offer the option of a final test at the end of the semester.
The lecturer makes recommendations for an appropriate combination of classes. The conservatory can provide a certificate on request, showing the performance of the pupil and confirming participation in the relevant courses.
Entry requirements
There are no entry requirements. Participation in the teaching of this department requires a previous knowledge of the progressive course stages.
For intensive preparation for study at a technical university or for a professional qualification, the Conservatory recommends the services offered by the Study Preparation department.
