In the second year of the Master's programme, students are invited to design a choreographic project, in a free format, to give shape to their personal research. Exhibition, video, performance, choreographic piece... whatever the medium, the aim of this research is to question their/our experience of the body and movement. Guided in their work by an established artist and by the Conservatoire's teaching and technical teams, students are introduced to the creative process through the experience of making, taking on their own artistic statement as performers. In so doing, they gain a sensitive grasp of the formal issues of writing, time, light, space and the relationship with others that will accompany them throughout their career.

As students on the ECMAster programme, groups must take part in a number of sessions organised by the European Chamber Music Academy (ECMA).

As part of the ECMAster programme, students must take complementary subjects specific to each institution during their semesters at the partner institutions.

The subjects to be taken are chosen by mutual agreement between the partner institutions; they may be practical, theoretical, general knowledge, etc.

In partnership with IRCAM and performing arts institutions (opera houses, contemporary music venues) involved in the creation of video sets and virtual sets.
