The best things about music at Newcastle University: "It offers such a wide variety of modules, with music lecturers, each of them experts in their subject.

"There is a wonderful sense of community in the department. We all came together for the Thursday lunchtime concert series in the magnificent King's Hall.

"There were many performance opportunities, including Tabla in Indian Music, and I played in the Symphony Orchestra and pit bands for theatre productions.

"I was part of the team that ran the ICMuS Festival. My degree has given me an insight into the world of arts administration."
