Prospective students must:

• submit at least two original compositions (using freely chosen instruments and media) totaling ~10 minutes as audio files and/or live performances; for acoustic works, scores are also required
• be familiar with music from different periods (listening tests)
  submit a portfolio of previous works
• be prepared to improvise on an instrument of your choice, electronics, sound objects, voice/body percussion
• student candidates with an acoustic music profile must be prepared for a sight-reading test (on the piano) and play a piece of music of their choice on the piano

During the oral interview, the examination committee may test the candidate’s knowledge in a specific field of interest and their orientation in general cultural topics (colloquium).

The examination committee will assess and take into account:

• the originality, artistic persuasiveness, and execution of creative works
• the level of general musical skills and abilities
• the level of specific skills and abilities arising from the candidate’s profile
• the candidate’s orientation in general cultural issues
