We run a unique series of undergraduate and postgraduate courses that are focussed on orchestration skills, the traditions of experimental music and the relationship between music and dance, film and other art forms. Our students collaborate with each other, with student and professional ensembles, with dance and with external partners. All compositions are performed or recorded, and students develop the ability not only to compose but to curate their own events. The courses culminate in large scale performances of their final works. We welcome students from non-traditional backgrounds and strive to be an exceptionally open and welcoming community. The primary activity will be teaching composition on a 1:1 basis and in small groups, with the possibility of an additional class about the relationship between music and other art forms. The teaching of composition is expected to include advanced harmonic and structural techniques alongside orchestration skills and conceptual understanding based on ideas from within and outside the Western music canon. Mentoring and wellbeing support is inherent within the student/teacher relationship and is something that we take great pride in within the department.Mon, 01 Jun 2026 14:07:16 +0100https://debussy.musicalchairs.info/de/jobs/54291https://debussy.musicalchairs.info/de/jobs/54291The 3rd Berlin Composition Prize 2026 (Duo) is looking for bold voices, fresh sounds, and new musical ideas.
