At the music department, the students are trained mostly by experienced artists (tutors), and the students are provided with the opportunity to study with national and international artists (guest soloists of the concerts of Bursa State Symphony Orchestra) who are invited to our school to enable students to make use of their experiences and archives at the workshops. Conservatory has quite a big library enough to supply students with scores of the pieces to be played and to make research, as well.
The students have the chance to give concerts not only with the Youth Symphony and the Academic Orchestra or personally, but also attend facilities at other cities. It is also a good opportunity for especially those students to be able to play with the Bursa State Symphony Orchestra when there is necessity for supplementary artists.
The Conservatory building provides various opportunities to progress in the quality of education. The financial support of our university for this building and the interior design is a significant advantage of this program.
