Specialization Areas
Baroque Music
The main focus of this specialization is on group work and chamber music. Seminars on epochs, style knowledge, the aesthetics of early music and the construction and care of baroque instruments are held during periods in Jakobstad. During the individual lessons, instrument specific technical and stylistic questions are worked on.
The Degree Programme in Baroque music gives regularly concerts in the Schauman hall. Concerts are also performed at various chamber music festivals around the country. The goal is to provide students with the skills to independently perform as a professional musician in the early music scene. Education is the only one of its kind at the Bachelor degree level in Finland.
Objective
An understanding of the music itself as self-supporting art and as a craft, as well as the ability to translate that understanding into the upcoming work.
