What it is

Classical performance, composition or church music in Piteå, with concert halls and studios to perform and record in and an artistic research project in the third year.

What you need

  • An audition with a music theory exam decides; IB grades do not rank you. LTU says these three tracks are taught in English and Swedish. 2027 audition dates not yet published.
