This Master's programme is aimed at students who already have a high level of instrumental and/or vocal competence and who also have knowledge of and experience in contemporary music. In addition to teaching individual lessons, the artistic directors of the degree programme are involved in as advisors in the design of individual studies. They support the students in the selection of international lecturers for individual lessons (17 hours per year), which can also take place outside the Hochschule für Musik Basel anywhere in Europe. The in-depth exploration of the broad spectrum of contemporary music-making and intensive collaborative work opens up ways for them to perform professionally as soloists, chamber musicians or in larger ensembles and to establish themselves on the international market.
