Subject Instruments

Students become acquainted with works from a wide variety of epochs and styles.

We take students’ personal preferences for a particular style into account without ignoring the particularities of other eras (musical, pop, jazz, and EMP).

Reinforcing the results from masterclasses and workshops are added to the artistic presentation.

Subject Singing

In the Subject of vocal training, we offer students professional and broadly diversified education in the artistic-voiced and Vocal pedagogy areas.

During the study, individual vocal competence develops not only in terms of vocal technique but also artistically and in stylistic terms in a contemporary manner.

With a selection of scene-based projects and performances, students expand comprehensively for their future musical activities.

Subject Music Education

Music pedagogical training adds another element to the degree program.

Students learn and try these things out in lectures, seminars, and many practical projects in the context of theory and practice.

By teaching practice-related music pedagogical skills, students are offered a course of study adapted to the requirements of the job market.

Subject Composition, Music Theory and Aural Training

In addition to the instruments and voice major, students may also elect to major in composition or music theory/aural training.

Most of the knowledge in the Subject of composition is taught primarily with the music of the 20th and 21st centuries.

In this respect, the focus and content of the study are composition instruction, instrumentation, aural analysis, audio technology, and preparation for a future teaching activity.

Subject Chamber Music

The Conducting course focuses on providing students with the knowledge and methods and enables students to independently self-rehearse and head various ensembles.
