holding analogous higher degrees, with a high level of instrumental or vocal technique and with knowledge of the stylistic and aesthetic implications of their repertoire, who wish to deepen their knowledge in the field of performance or composition with a view to specializing in specific repertoires for the different specialties offered.<\/p>\n<p>They must have the talent, ability and motivation to pursue an ambitious musical career and be aware of an artistic personality that allows them to develop the study of a repertoire that makes the most of their talent.<\/p>\n<h3>Training profile<\/h3>\n<p>The interest of the Master\u2019s proposal lies in the need to deepen the knowledge of specific repertoires for each musician, who, once they have completed Higher Studies and have a complete but general training, must develop tools to design and define what will become their personal style while working on these repertoires, from theoretical and technical knowledge and with their own contribution to performance criteria.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-1-t4\" class=\"accordion-title js-accordion-controller\"

education institution in the EHEA that entitles, in the country issuing the qualification, access to artistic\/official Master\u2019s studies (or a qualification from outside the EHEA, subject to prior verification that the qualification certifies an equivalent level of training).<\/p>\n<p>The Higher Conservatory establishes the different admission procedures. To access the Master\u2019s Degree in Performance it will be necessary to pass an audition, or Entrance Examination, in which the candidate must perform a previously prepared repertoire. Candidates for the Master\u2019s Degree in Applied Composition must send scores and recordings of <u>four works of different format<\/u> which are a representative sample of their work as composers. Candidates will receive prior advice from the Master\u2019s Director, if they so request, to choose the appropriate repertoire for the audition.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, candidates for the different Master\u2019s programs must attend an interview in which they will present their motivation and expectations for taking the course. This interview will aim to assess the artistic maturity of the candidates and the suitability of their complementary musical training in accordance with the objectives of the Master\u2019s program.<\/p>\n<p>The audition and the interview will be graded with integer numbers from 0 to 10. The Entrance Examination will also include study of the academic record.<\/p>\n<p>In the case of students with specific educational needs due to disability, they must pass a specific adapted test that will primarily assess their ability to achieve the objectives of the Master\u2019s program and will also serve to identify possible needs for adaptation of the format of individual and group training sessions.<\/p>\n<p>Places are limited and, if necessary, those responsible for the Master\u2019s program will allocate them according to the results of the admission process and will propose alternative teachers to the other candidates.<\/p>\n<p>Candidates who do not have a document certifying B2 level in English must take the corresponding language proficiency test.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-1-t5\" class=\"accordion-title js-accordion-controller\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1-c5\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\tPre-enrollment\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1-c5\" class=\"accordion-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\n<p>Each year the center\u2019s website will publish the call for the admission process to the Master\u2019s studies, specifying the deadlines and procedures for submitting applications and the documentation that must accompany them.<\/p>\n<p>The Conservatory will reserve an appropriate number of places to be allocated among students with disabilities. The reserved places for these students that remain unfilled will be added to those offered by the center for students without disabilities in each of the calls.<\/p>\n<p>Students will complete pre-enrollment online using the standardized form established for this purpose.<\/p>\n<p>During the Master\u2019s pre-enrollment period, applicants must complete the registration form available on the center\u2019s website and submit it together with the interested party\u2019s curriculum vitae and certificates accrediting the training claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Pre-enrollments will be sent from the center\u2019s secretary\u2019s office, which will forward them to the Academic Committee for Master\u2019s Studies, which will assess the applications and return them to the secretary\u2019s office once evaluated in order to call the applicants to the Entrance Examination.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-1-t6\" class=\"accordion-title js-accordion-controller\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1-c6\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\tRequired documentation\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1-c6\" class=\"accordion-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Curriculum vitae<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Motivation letter<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Photocopy of ID card (passport in the case of foreign students)<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Photocopy of the Higher Degree in Music or equivalent (if available)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 role=\"button\" id=\"accordion-1-t7\" class=\"accordion-title js-accordion-controller\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1-c7\" aria-expanded=\"false\" tabindex=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\tRepertoire and exercises for the Entrance Examination\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1-c7\" class=\"accordion-content\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n\t\t\t\n<h3>Master\u2019s Degree in Performance of Classical and Contemporary Music<\/h3>\n<p>Performance of a repertoire that includes a minimum of 4 works or complete movements with a total minimum duration of 30 minutes.
