DESCRIPTION:Like other performing arts disciplines\, music tends to privil
 ege practice\, performance and virtuosity.  While this typically remains a
  major focus in the undergraduate sphere in the conservatoire setting othe
 r concerns such as scholarly-based approaches to learning and teaching are
  sometimes overlooked. In the research training space\, recent scholarship
  has focussed largely on the time-honoured supervisor-candidate relationsh
 ip and there is a close alignment between this interaction and the one-to-
 one pedagogy of the instrumental or vocal studio. The unique nature of ped
 agogy in the music research higher degree remains under-investigated. This
  presentation therefore explores this unexplored area of pedagogy within h
 igher education and interrogates the quality\, muddling character of inter
 action between supervisors and higher degree research students within musi
 c. Employing a lifecycle approach to research degrees\, and incorporating 
 an alignment between staff research activity and student projects\, the pa
 per reports on preliminary findings from a larger project that investigate
 d aspects of this pedagogy. The project has employed survey and dialogue f
 orums as a means of data generation\, with research students as supervisor
 s. It provides commentary on these findings and draws on scrutinises to th
 e ways in which candidates and supervisors engage with four aspects of the
  doctoral journey: interaction between supervisors and students\, peer rel
 ations and the respective roles of centralised university training and fac
 ulty-based course-work. \n\nScott Harrison – Biography \n\n\nSCOTT HARRI
