Music at Kingston
Our music department has expertise across the spectrum of contemporary music – from classical to popular, from main stream to avant-garde, from the concert hall to music for film and TV, from notated to improvised and from acoustic to electroacoustic.
Technology, intermedia and multimedia productions, and live performance are the hallmarks of music at Kingston – we like a challenge. We are part of the 2012 Cultural Olympiad with a project called 'Bodies in Motion', making reference not only to the athletics but also to the work of pioneering photographer Eadweard Muybridge (1830–1904), who was born and died in Kingston. It will be a multimedia production making use of all the diverse talents in our team of students and staff.
