• Over recent decades many of the most significant figures in British music have studied or taught at Cambridge: composers such as Alexander Goehr, Judith Weir and Thomas Adès; performers like Joanna MacGregor and Mark Padmore; conductors including John Eliot Gardiner and Nicholas Collon; writers and broadcasters, including Alexis Petridis (rock and pop critic for The Guardian) and Sara Mohr-Pietsch (Radio 3); and crossover artists such as Delia Derbyshire and Clean Bandit.
  • This undergraduate course has a strong academic component, particularly focusing on history, analysis, composition (including screen and media composition) and performance, but also offering a range of other topics (see the course outline).
