Programme profile
The Malmö Academy of Music is part of the Faculty of Fine and Performing Arts at Lund University and is an academy for prospective professional musicians, church musicians, composers, music teachers or researchers who want a solid education in their area of music. Here you can reach the highest possible level of artistic and personal expression, and use your specialism to actively contribute to a dynamic cultural life.
The programme aims to train musicians that possess excellent artistic and professional qualities. The programme is offered to both instrument players and vocalists with a background in folk music or non-Western classical music. After the successful completion of the programme of study, students shall have sufficient knowledge, understanding and skills to be able to pursue a career within various professional areas.
The student should develop the skills necessary for continued or in-depth studies that are to a great degree autonomous. Furthermore, on completion of the programme, the student should have acquired basic entrepreneurial skills that increase his/her professional versatility in an ever-changing cultural life.
A number of well-known musicians have visited the Academy as guest lecturers. They have come from both Scandinavian countries and countries beyond Scandinavia such as Cuba, Gambia, England and Chile among others. A list of guest lecturers is decided on by students and those responsible for the programme
