Malta School of Music Prospectus and New Applications

The Malta School of Music has just published its Prospectus for the 2021-2022 scholastic year, and announced that they will be receiving applications from new students between the 20th and 30th of May.

The School of Music currently caters for 880 students ranging from beginners to higher diploma level. With a strong team of 85 specialised music teachers, the school offers an unrivaled opportunity for any student at any level who would like to delve into the world of music. The school offers accredited courses from MQF Level 1 to MQF Level 5, as well as an opportunity to join the school in a more leisurely manner for those who wish to focus on the enjoyment that music gives.

Mr Victor Galea, Head of College Network for Schools Specialised in the Visual and Performing Arts said that “the very existence of the Malta School of Music ensures that our society has a space for those students who wish to enrich their lives with the learning of music.”

“Music is an art that requires great love and great discipline. At our school we strive to nurture these in each individual while also encouraging curiosity and creativity”, continued Ms Maria Blanco, Head of the School of Music.

Each year, the school opens its doors to around 200 new students who apply and are selected through an audition process that identifies musical skills and aptitude, allowing students to choose their best pathway. Young beginners are invited to apply for the Music Makers Course, catering for 6 to 8 year olds, who will be guided in choosing the right instrument for them and preparing them for entry to the Regular Music Course, which sees them developing musical skills up to MQF Level 4 in both music theory and practice.

This year, the school is offering the option for external students to join the school’s Children Choir or Community Choir, and inviting advanced music students to audition for one of the various music groups such as bands, chamber ensembles, string orchestra, wind band or full orchestra.

Another great opportunity is presented through the new Diplomas in Performance, were apart from the Solo Performance, students may now choose to specialize in Chamber Music or Piano Accompaniment.
