The School of Music at Cardiff University is just fantastic. As well as providing a vast amount of performance opportunities as a part of the course, the staff at the uni also take the time to support student organised music ensembles, allowing students to perform whatever they want, whenever they want. What we have to remember is that music is not a cheap course to put on, but Cardiff seem to make sure that every single student benefits from spending £9,000 a year on the course; they offer a wide range of modules along with excellent lecturers to teach them. Overall, I believe that this course is well worth the money. read more
