Individual classes
Each student will receive a minimum of 40 hours of personalised instrumental practice from their tutor/teacher distributed throughout the academic year.

Master classes with visiting professors
EAEM students will receive individual classes by soloists of international relevance, either invited by the RFG or hired for the purpose.

B - Practices with the RFG
Each student, with the supervision of his tutor, will join the RFG participating in various programs of the season (academic cycle).

C - Chamber music and instrumental ensemble
All students will participate in programs related to group practice that will materialize in public concerts throughout the academic year.

D - Theoretical subjects
Theoretical-practical content applied to instrumental practice, knowledge of the professional world as well as aspects related to the acquisition of a good mind-body disposition will be taught.

E - End of course project
In order to obtain the postgraduate degree, students must carry out an end-of-course project that will basically consist of the preparation and interpretation of public concerts that imply an outstanding soloist participation, either in individual or ensemble concerts.

Curriculum

Students will be guided from the outset by their respective tutors, who will follow an individualised and detailed training itinerary, taking into account the special characteristics of each student.

This educational programming will guarantee the students training and will allow them to obtain the necessary credits for their accreditation as a specialist. The fit of each student in the orchestra programs will be set by the Director, after deliberation by the Educational Commission.

In order for students to rehearse both individually and collectively, the EAEM will guarantee classrooms and study booths for everyone at the school headquarters.

As it is an eminently practical course, the instrumental subjects will have a higher non-contact study load than the face-to-face one.

Teachers

La EAEM cuenta con un profesorado altamente cualificado,
compuesto de músicos de la propia Real Filharmonía de Galicia.

They talk about their training

Azucena Mirás

Bassoon

The postgraduate course was a unique opportunity to finish my training as an orchestra musician, since it gives you the opportunity to play with a professional orchestra and learn from magnificent musicians and people. It is a course that also gives you training to be a complete musician, receiving classes from professionals from all walks of life. I think it's impossible to capture in a few words everything that the course meant to me, but what I do know for sure is that it helped me to advance as a musician and, above all, to be prepared to do all kinds of tests.

Francisco José Sánchez

Percussion

My stay in Santiago was, without a doubt, one of the best of my life. A first contact with the professional world, from which I learned a lot: from the orchestra, from the teachers and, of course, from the great family that all the EAEM colleagues make up. Reflection and learning. Opportunities to meet new people and also yourself. It was short for me.

Francisco Tomás

Trumpet

In general, my experience as a CAEO student was very positive. I began to study the natural trumpet there, I worked on a very diverse orchestral repertoire (much of it new to me) and I had the opportunity to play with the RFG in very interesting programs, as well as being able to play as a soloist. I would like to highlight the theoretical-practical subjects, which have helped me to get to know myself better and to be able to get the best out of myself in my personal life and, therefore, also in my musical life.
