Congratulations and Welcome to the Music Department
Congratulations on your successful application to Durham!
We are delighted that you have chosen to study here and hope that your time in Durham will be challenging and fulfilling.
As you will come to see, Durham enjoys a rich musical life: The University boasts numerous choirs, orchestras, opera, jazz and early-music ensembles, and the Department runs its own annual concert series, which attracts soloists from around the World.
We are very fortunate that the Music Department is located within the historic UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising the magnificent 11th-century Cathedral and Castle. We have a distinguished tradition of scholarship stretching back to the nineteenth century, but we pride ourselves on remaining a dynamic centre of creative and intellectual innovation.
On behalf of the department, I wish you all the very best for your time at Durham.
Professor Laura Leante
