Anyone who wishes to become a professional musician should consider a music instrumental program. A degree can usually allow a student to specialize in an instrument or vocals. The student will generally study their chosen instrument in depth, as well as broader subjects including ear training, theory and composition.

Like many other EU countries, Poland offers inexpensive or even free tuition to EU students. Prospective students should apply directly to their chosen Polish institution. The University of Warsaw, for example, charges between £1,300 and £2,500 per year for its English language courses.
