How to get started

Practice deliberately and get feedback — conservatoire entry is audition-based.
Record yourself monthly; progress you can hear builds both skill and audition material.
Research conservatoires vs university music programs — they differ enormously.

Your first project

Produce a 60-second piece of music for an imaginary film scene using a free DAW, and post it with the scene description. Constraint breeds creativity — and it's a portfolio piece.

12-month action plan

Jan–Mar: Technical Foundation

Set a deliberate practice routine (quality over hours) with clear weekly goals
Study music theory fundamentals — free via musictheory.net
Record a baseline video of your current level

Apr–Jun: Perform & Produce

Perform publicly at least twice — school events, open mics, community concerts
Learn a DAW basics (GarageBand or Reaper) and produce one simple track
Get feedback from a teacher or experienced musician monthly
