Music at Hurtwood
"The use of digital equipment in the music industry
has completely changed the way music is created
and listened to and educationally Hurtwood House
is at the forefront of this revolution"
PERFORMANCE
Hurtwood attracts a vast amount of musical talent because of the outstanding opportunities it affords. Elaborately staged concerts and musical showcases give singers and instrumentalists and opportunity to perform with professional musicians in front of audiences which often include agents and record companies.
MUSIC TECHNOLOGY
Academically, the school’s music focus is on Music Technology.
We have one of the best-equipped and highest achieving departments in the country, with 4 purpose-built digital recording studios including 2 Pro Tools systems with Control 24 mixing surfaces.
Students also have the opportunity to hone their skills as part of the professional sound crew for productions, working on sound design, and using professional mixing desks, microphones and other equipment.
