You might have read my last blog about <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/2020\/01\/25\/a-week-in-the-life-of-a-music-student\/\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A week in the life of a Music student<\/span><\/i><\/a><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">. <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For this blog, I wanted to highlight a few things that you can look forward to as a student at York. <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Music and non-music societies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Unlike a lot of universities, York has a lot of music-related societies that are led by a professional conductor.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">There\u2019s Chamber Choir, The 24, University Symphony Orchestra and more. If you like something more ambitious or experimental, there are also some student-run ensembles like Chimera, the contemporary music ensemble. Either way, you will definitely be able to get your music fix here. Outside of the university, there are loads of other musical things to get into like events at the Minster (which is free to visit for residents). If your life happens to i<\/span>nvolve<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> things other than music, there are a<\/span>lso <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">over 200 university societies that you can join! I\u2019m part of York St<\/span>udent <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">T<\/span>elevision<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and badminton outside of my music societies.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Practical Project<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a first year, your first module will be the Practical Project. With leadership and direction from a lecturer and a group of second and third year students, you will put together a big public performance which students plan, market and perform. Through this, you will be able to meet loads of new people since the community is small and close-knit.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Practical Project is so varied; you get to pick which groups you want to be part of and if you want to, you can create your own performances. These could be played at the interval or during the concert. This has been a longstanding part of the course, and many alumni praise it for being one of the most important parts of the first year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The balance between practical and theoretical work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The biggest reason why I\u2019m so happy with Music at York is the mixture of theoretical studies, like harmony and counterpoint, and practical aspects of the course, like conducting or performance modules. Whenever I meet musicians that went to different universities they often mention how they wish their university had a balance between the two sides of music. After all, they are both important and most people get into music through the practical, rather than theoretical side. Music is also very forward-thinking. There are career days and events from the start of first year to help you get an idea of what you might want to do after university.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Apart from these top three, there are still so many things you can look forward to at York. The concert series is great, with weekly concerts that showcase so many different types of music. There\u2019s also the ability to choose modules straight away<\/span>;<span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> all the student concerts; and that there are no big hall traditional exams<\/span>!<\/p>\n<div class=\"ap-custom-wrapper\"><\/div><!--ap-custom-wrapper-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey, I\u2019m Adam and I\u2019m a first-year Music student at the University of York.
