CERTIFYING COURSES
In the CMDL, you can choose from four degree programs: Bachelor’s, Master’s, DNSPM, and Professional Training. Whether you are returning to school or just starting your university career, CMDL will support you in building your artistic career. Our programs are rooted in the reality of the music industry.
The DNSPM jazz and improvised music program teaches working methods that enable students to master instrumental technique and acquire true autonomy and artistic dimension. The DNSPM program is available as initial or continuing education.
The Bachelor’s degree in Musicology – Jazz and Improvised Music provides an introductory level of university knowledge and skills in jazz and improvised music.
The Master’s program in Music, Production, and Performance provides a second level of university knowledge and expertise in music education and practice.
