Music: Why Study This?
If you'e thinking about going into the music or entertainment industries (perhaps making music for radio, TV, film or public performance) you'll find lots in the Music part of the Media Studies A Level that will entertain and inform you.
Music: What Will I Study?
You may get to produce an original piece of music to introduce and accompany a radio or TV show. You'd need to think about the target audience for your music and how it adds to existing radio music available. You also may be asked to write an essay or other coursework on music institutions and audiences.
Further Study After Music
