HIGHER EDUCATION MUSIC STUDIES IN MADRID
The Música Creativa Higher Education Institution is an official higher education institution authorised by the General Directorate of Universities and Higher Artistic Education of the Community of Madrid and legally dependent on the Música Creativa Foundation, a non-profit organisation whose aims include the promotion of higher education in contemporary music and jazz. The collaboration of the Escuela de Música Creativa—an entity with more than 35 years of experience in this field—plays a key role in the development of this project.
Our official degree programmes in Performance of Contemporary Music and Jazz and in Composition for Audiovisual Media have been structured in line with the quality standards of European higher education and are based on the development of two fundamental concepts to align with guarantees in today’s music industry: stylistic versatility to undertake any project and artistic identity to stand out.
Unique courses in our country
In the Bachelor’s Degree in Music Performance, unlike other alternative degrees to classical training, onlyfocused on jazz, we conceive its learning as thebackbone of the studies, with the students choosing their own path based on their interests.
In the Degree in Composition, from the mastery of all the techniques and resources of musical creation, the audiovisual approach is marked by a prominent role of technology and the study of musical languages applied to image.

Direct immersion in the professional world
True musicianship comes not only through individual practice and hard work, but also through interaction and experience on stage
With over 35 years of experience in the field of teaching jazz and other current music styles and with hundreds of professional musicians trained in our classrooms, we know that hands-on experiences are key to learning. Our students start collaborating from day one: playing in groups, improvising, writing and arranging while experimenting and learning the latest technologies.
The centre’s participation in the city’s cultural programming makes us a key player in Madrid’s music scene. Our campus is located in the heart of an artistic and multicultural neighbourhood in the centre of Madrid, giving students the opportunity to perform live and network with the local cultural programmers we collaborate with. Student groups perform regularly at the city’s major live music venues and participate annually in the Madrid International Jazz Festival.
Innovative and quality training
We believe that digital tools enhance the creative process and encourage flexible learning, in line with the demands of the music industry. That’s why you will receive a WelcomeTech Pack with an iPad (and if you are studying for a Degree in Composition, also a sound card, licenses and virtual instruments) so that you can develop your potential from the very first minute.
