Overview

Master of Music in Organ

The Master of Music (M.Mus.) degree in performance is offered to students who have achieved the necessary levels of attainment and show the potential for further significant accomplishment.

This degree is often a final academic step for the musician who wishes to enter the professional world. 

However, it may prove an intermediate step for those preparing for doctoral training. 

A two-year residency is the norm.

Piano, harpsichord and organ students at UBC can expect comprehensive musical and personal growth at the undergraduate or graduate level. 

UBC Music offers enriching experiences in chamber music, large ensembles, pedagogy and literature, and more.

UBC Music provides various performance opportunities that inspire and create rewarding musical experiences. 

Early music and contemporary ensembles give further performance opportunities outside the standard repertoire. 

In addition, collaborative piano and chamber music studies with singers and instrumentalists are an important component of students’ training at UBC.

Language pathway (conditional offer) is available

The Faculty of Graduate Studies may extend a conditional offer of admission to a highly-qualified graduate applicant who does not quite meet the minimum English language proficiency requirement set by the graduate program to which the student has applied.

The student will proceed directly into the graduate degree program after successfully completing the prescribed terms of study in the ELI Intensive Academic English Program (or pre-approved, equivalent alternative).

To be eligible for the Condition Admission Program (CAP), the applicant must:

  • Possess a "first-class average" (or established equivalent) in a degree deemed as an eligible basis for admission, OR have academic qualifications that would have ranked them in the top 33% of students admitted to the graduate program to which they are applying, for the year before the date of their application;
  • have English language proficiency, demonstrated via an accepted test, that can reasonably be expected to be brought up to the standard required by the graduate program to which the student has applied by completing ELI (or accepted equivalent) training in no more than a year; and
  • be recommended for the CAP by a UBC graduate program.
