Music and cinema have shared a deep connection since the dawn of filmmaking. This program offers a comprehensive exploration of the interplay between these artistic fields through multiple viewpoints. You'll join a vibrant musical environment while leveraging Bangor's strong ties to film studies and media production networks across the USA, Australasia, and Europe. Graduating with expertise in both Music and Film opens doors to diverse career paths in these creative industries.
The Music program provides a dynamic platform for artistic development under the mentorship of internationally acclaimed composers, performers, and scholars. You'll have performance opportunities in prestigious venues like Pontio or the stunning Prichard Jones Hall, alongside participation in ensembles such as the University Symphony Orchestra or various student-run music groups. Our partnerships with top UK institutions, including collaborative workshops with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, further enrich your musical journey.
Film Studies merges theoretical analysis with hands-on creative practice. Our faculty specialize in diverse areas ranging from global cinema traditions to digital filmmaking techniques, covering topics like screenwriting, acting, visual culture, and emerging media forms. The program examines film through cultural, historical, and technological lenses while fostering practical skills in production and media creation.
