The college offers a wide variety of facilities including a technology suite, practice room and a live space that facilitates the pursuit of instrumental studies as well as giving students the equipment and opportunity to record their creative works. We also have our own record label that enables us to release student work on major streaming platforms, either as part of vocational coursework or purely as a creative outlet.

Music at RIC is broad, practical and fun. In the lower years, students make the most of small class sizes to perform in bands and other ensembles on a range of college instruments. They listen to a vast range of music, from classical to pop to music for games and films and compose their own music in response to what they've heard. With access to iMacs running industry-standard software, they use technology to make music that would not be possible otherwise, from musique concrete to synthpop, Stockhausen to trap.
