Goa College Of Music

Practical Training in Music :

Students receive personalized instruction in ragas, focusing on the proper application of voice, tunefulness, and mastery of rhythm. Instrumental students are trained in proper technique, playing various ragas and talas to develop technical proficiency and musical expression.

Theoretical Training :

Students learn the theoretical aspects of ragas, including their structure, application, and comparative study of similar ragas. Additional theoretical subjects such as Aesthetics, Musicology, and Voice Culture complement practical learning.

Workshops and Guest Lectures:

We regularly invite visiting professors, renowned artists, and scholars to conduct workshops and masterclasses. These sessions provide students with advanced insights into different aspects of musicology and performance.

Exposure to Live Performances :

Students are encouraged to attend live concerts, as well as engage with recorded performances (LPs, CDs, cassettes), to gain exposure to different musical styles, interpretations, and performances.

Regular Performance Opportunities :

To enhance performing skills, students participate in weekly college programs and performances at educational and cultural institutions. These regular opportunities help students gain practical experience and confidence in live settings.
