A master’s in Music & Performing Arts is for applicants who want advanced study after a first degree and are aiming for specialist practice, teaching, research, or further artistic training. It suits students who already have a clear focus and want graduate-level work rather than an entry route into the subject.

Every university in this set is public, so the main differences are location and whether you are looking at a larger coastal city, the capital, or Lanzhou. Fees are not specified for these programmes, so you need to confirm tuition and other costs directly with each university before deciding.

Before applying, verify the exact programme title, admission requirements, language of instruction, tuition, and any portfolio or audition expectations. You should also check whether each university offers the study format you need and whether the programme matches your intended area within Music & Performing Arts.
