Master of Music - Master - Zwolle

Why the Master of Music?

Tradition is your material – the future is your playground. In Zwolle, you will join a master’s programme that gives new meaning to tradition. You will train as a performer-curator, with a sharp awareness of audience, place and time. You will work in a close-knit community at the conservatory, with strong links to the regional scene – from ensembles and venues to festivals. In labs and residencies, you will develop and present your work in real-world contexts, with artistic research woven into your creative process. Through personal coaching and a flexible study route, you will refine your artistic signature and design formats that respond to today’s contexts – from concert halls and festivals to educational and community programmes. 


In brief: 

  • Focus on both performance and curation – context-driven work and new audiences
  • Weekly lab environment with residencies and public presentations
  • Research embedded in artistic practice – more than just on paper
  • Personal coaching and a flexible, goal-oriented study route
