The aim of the programme is to prepare highly qualified musical artists with a high degree of skill in the performance of solo, chamber and orchestral literature. The continuing Master's Programme builds upon and deepens the curriculum studied in the Bachelor's Programme. It develops and systematizes skills and knowledge related to the presentation of students' own performance in chamber ensembles, orchestras, and as a soloist. The study focuses on the mastery of a wide range of repertoire of the highest possible performance difficulty, the development of the student's individual musical expression with an ability for critical self-reflection, flawless mastery of instrumental technique and knowledge of a wide range of performance approaches.
The graduate has acquired advanced skills to choose the optimal performance approach to a given repertoire and to support his/her decision with relevant arguments. The student emerges as a versatile and mature artistic personality capable of masterful, original and convincing musical expression in the performance of highly demanding, extensive and stylistically diverse repertoire.

There is a fee for studying in English. The amount of tuition fees for each study programme, including specialisations, is set by the Dean's Decree, which is published in the relevant section of the faculty website in English. The admission procedure is conducted in the form of a live audition.
The exact conditions of the audition examination are decreed for each academic year - a specific programme (specification of compulsory compositions and compositions of one's own choice, whether it is compulsory to play these compositions from memory, etc.), which is chosen so that the applicant has the opportunity to demonstrate his or her exceptional aptitude for the Master's degree.
These requirements are updated annually and published in the appropriate places on the study section of the faculty website in English.
The audition examination is conducted live before an examination committee by having the candidate present a set programme. The examination committee has the right to determine which of the required pieces the candidate will perform. The examination board has the right to interrupt individual pieces at any time.
The admissions committee evaluates the candidate with a cumulative score that includes an assessment of mastery of playing technique, sense of rhythm, musical memory, performance imagination, developed musical ear and individual performance contribution, all at least at the level of a bachelor's degree graduate.
The conditions of the admission procedure, including the determination of the method of scoring and its range, are regulated for each academic year by the relevant decree of the Dean, which is subject to approval by the Academic Senate of the Faculty.
