Russian Music Academy of Barcelona
Theoretical subjects
Theoretical subjects form the foundation for understanding music from an analytical perspective and improving performance. We offer sight-singing, specialised sight-singing for singers, music theory, harmony and composition, at all levels.
Music education options
We offer three pathways of music education for our students:
Official qualifications
We prepare students for entrance examinations to Spain's main music conservatoires, for both intermediate and advanced degree programmes.
Trinity College
As an official Trinity examination centre, we offer our students the opportunity to obtain an internationally recognised certificate that demonstrates their musical level.
Individual plan
We welcome students of all ages and levels. We offer individualised music tuition tailored to each student's personal development.
Festivals and concerts
Playing in public is the best learning experience.
For this reason, all our students have the opportunity to participate in festivals and concerts organised each year to showcase what they have learned in the classroom.
Frequently asked questions
Music theory is the core subject, and as the student progresses, music history, Russian music history, composition basics, music technology and world music traditions are added. For singers, we also offer specialised sight-singing, sight-reading, musical literature and opera history.
