Music theory, history of music and aural skills form the basis of everything we do at the Academy.
We are looking for you if your fingers itch to dig down into musical notation to understand why the notes were written exactly as they were.
Teach, do research, or just understand? For music theory students, no detail is insignificant, and no question is too trivial. In the applied music theory course, both your head and your ears will be put to good use – and you will delve deeply into the music and the composers.
At the Norwegian Academy of Music, you will be part of Norway’s leading music community and gain access to an expansive international network of music professionals. You will get to know our outstanding faculty and students from around the world, and be challenged to evolve your skills, regardless of your musical discipline.
At the Academy, we encourage you to seek out your own path. Our commitment to musical excellence embraces both tradition and innovation. We provide an inspiring environment and a wide range of opportunities to experiment and explore while developing the skills and knowledge of your discipline. Our teaching staff is comprised of music professionals of the highest calibre, ready to challenge and motivate you to succeed in your career in music.
Whether your passion is solo performance, composition, playing with an orchestra, organising festivals or changing the ways we perceive and listen to music, the Academy provides the best state-of-the-art music education facilities in Europe.
