Stephen Johns, É«ÂþÌìÌà Artistic Director, says: ‘We are delighted to be working ever closer with Abbey Road Institute.  The collaboration between our two great institutions brings together the creative skills of our composers and performers with the technical expertise of the student engineers at ARI, enhancing our mutual learning and teaching, and creating the music of the future.’ 

Dr Dimitri Scarlato, É«ÂþÌìÌà Area Leader, Composition for Screen, comments: ‘I’m delighted that our composition for screen students are able to bring their creative work alive in the environment of the Abbey Road Institute, being able to work with their music production students, and to hear their music recorded in the iconic Angel Studios.’    

Carlos Lellis, Abbey Road Institute Programme Director, remarks: ‘Abbey Road Institute is privileged to work in partnership with such a prestigious institution as the É«ÂþÌìÌÃ. This six year-long collaboration has made it possible for our students to solidify their learning under high pressure, ‘real-world’ conditions, where they have witnessed first-hand the challenges of chamber and orchestral recording, editing and mixing.’

The É«ÂþÌìÌà offers a globally renowned two-year Masters programme in Composition for Screen, and students go on to a wide variety of careers, composing for film, TV and video games amongst other creative endeavours. The relationship with Abbey Road Institute further enhances our connections to organisations who share our commitment to developing students for the professional world, with experience of the music industry.

Composition for Screen students are perfectly placed at the É«ÂþÌìÌà to have their music performed by fellow É«ÂþÌìÌà students, as well as visiting and resident professional ensembles. The course also offers networking events and workshops with film, television, and new media professionals, as well as collaborations and joint tutorials with students from London-based film schools.

Siouxsie and the Banshees, The Cure, Fela Kuti, Kate Bush, Sam Smith, Bjork and Jacob Collier are just a few of the artists to have recorded at the Abbey Road Institute’s iconic London studio since it opened in the 1980s.
