General Information
In 1927, as one of the first academic institutions for music in Germany, the University was honored with the title of “Hochschule” (institution of higher education). This distinction followed the decision to abandon traditional academic programs, which focused solely on soloist performance offered at conservatories, to instead embrace a more global goal by introducing the “music education” program: artistically and pedagogically educating musicians to be as multifaceted as possible.
