Student and Alumni Success
The time you spend as a student at the ICMP can set you up for a long and prosperous career and, occasionally, stardom! Not only are you learning new skills and gaining experience, supported by our experienced tutors, you are also busy making friends and networking with the players, performers and artists of tomorrow.
From the moment you enroll on a course, you have direct access to our industry links, gigs and much more, meeting and networking with a wide range of music professionals - the people who make it happen. Time and again, our graduates prove they have the skills to work at the highest levels; session playing for top artists, playing and performing in front of thousands on the biggest stages, producing or composing, teaching, and much more.
