香港开设音乐专业硕士的学校不多，最近有些学生过来咨询该专业。为了让大家有个详细的了解，故在此专门做了一些研究。特别献上香港音乐专业选校情况介绍。首先先介绍一下开设音乐专业的学校分别有哪些：
他们是: 1. 香港中文大学
2. 香港浸会大学
3. 香港教育学院
这三所大学的音乐专业方向不同，侧重点不同。各位申请者选择时需要了解清楚，对背景要求也截然不同。
接下来依次介绍一下：
1. 香港中文大学
音乐系
该专业是偏文科的，在文学院下的音乐系。该项目是专为音乐教师,艺术管理员、教堂的音乐家和音乐爱好者来升级他们的音乐知识的。课程包括西方,中国和世界音乐文化、流行音乐和香港的电影音乐,音乐管理和推广等等。
该专业对音乐表演能力要求不强，所以在申请时对作品的要求没有很强烈。甚至没有明确说明要作品，所以申请时作品成为辅助材料。
但是该专业要有很强的实践能力，比如实习或工作经验，对文书要求也很高，需要文书能体现学生对音乐的理解和未来的就业有明晰的目标。同时有面试要求。所以申请者重点要把文书做好!
2. 香港浸会大学
音乐系
该硕士课程是偏表演性质的，对作品要求高。主要是在音乐表演能力、创造力方面培养学生的，并且有丰富的奖学金。学校的重点是强调独奏,并提供一个在音乐制作方面的实践经验。在过去的几年,香港浸会大学的乐团除了广泛的在香港演出外。其香港浸会大学女孩合唱团还有去到韩国、新加坡、加拿大、台湾、马来西亚、美国、捷克和俄罗斯表演。香港浸会大学合唱团也进行了在瑞士和奥地利的巡回演出。浸会大学交响乐团每年至少两个主要的音乐会。他们的作曲家有重大国际演出,还赢得了很多杰出奖项。该课程项目设计的需要完成30个units,这样才可以完成一年的硕士课程。其中学生必须完成三个核心课程(9units);至少一个完整的模块(6units)和五个其他课程(15units)。
