Develop your skill set in more than one subject area and study with a wider range of expert staff on this Music Production with Jazz course at Leeds Conservatoire. You’ll take your Specialist Study modules in Production and your Specialist Group Study modules in Jazz. This course will give students the skills to become sophisticated music producers, with performance experience in jazz ensembles. Combining small group tuition and one-to-one final year tuition/mentoring, small-ensemble work and seminars, this course will underpin students’ composition skills with the technical know-how necessary to compete in a fast-moving music industry. Students will enhance their understanding of production practices within a studio environment alongside issues of style and repertoire from a jazz ensemble perspective. Leeds Conservatoire's jazz degree was the first in the UK, and over the last 50 years we've become a leading authority in jazz across the UK and Europe. Our highly collaborative curriculum will shape you into a forward-thinking, creative artist grounded in the tradition but with a hunger to take music to new dimensions.

The BA (Hons) Music (Production with Jazz) modules focus on developing you as a professional musician and producer through small group work and creative projects. The professional studies strand will develop your core business skills, and other optional modules will introduce additional cross-genre capabilities. The programme has strands in Specialist Study, Contextual Studies and Professional Studies that span the three levels of the programme. Students focus primarily on their Specialist Study.
