Ar­tis­tic Mu­sic Stu­dies

Would you like to turn your pas­si­on for mu­sic and your in­stru­ment into a pro­fes­si­on? The­re are many ways to achie­ve this goal. Tha­t's why we at the HfMDK in Frank­furt pro­vi­de stu­dents with com­pre­hen­si­ve sup­port for their ta­lents and mo­ti­va­te them to de­ve­lop their own pro­fes­sio­nal pro­fi­le.

Whe­ther your pro­fi­le then points in an ar­tis­tic-per­forming, mu­si­co­lo­gi­cal-re­flec­tive or ar­tis­tic-pe­dago­gi­cal di­rec­tion - or in all di­rec­tions at the same time - you de­ci­de for yours­elf.

Rea­dy for mul­ti­ple ca­re­ers

In ad­di­ti­on to in­di­vi­du­al les­sons on the in­stru­ment, the wide ran­ge of sub­jec­ts at the HfMDK al­lows stu­dents to ori­ent them­sel­ves free­ly and to work towards mul­ti­ple ca­re­ers du­ring their stu­dies - as a so­loist and as an ar­tis­tic tea­cher, in an or­ches­tra and in an en­sem­ble. The job pro­files are be­co­m­ing in­crea­singly di­ver­se, in­di­vi­du­al and in­ter­na­tio­nal.

In the Ba­che­lor's, Mas­ter's and con­cert ex­ami­na­ti­ons, you will learn from ar­tists who are re­now­ned and net­wor­ked, and who the­re­fo­re know exac­t­ly which cur­rent de­ve­lop­ments and dis­cour­ses are cur­r­ent­ly oc­cu­py­ing the mu­sic world. All tea­ching staff are me­tho­do­lo­gi­cal­ly ex­cel­lent ex­perts, al­ways open to new ide­as and take on re­spon­si­bi­li­ty: they pro­vi­de sup­port and ad­vice, for examp­le in pre­pa­ring for com­pe­ti­ti­ons and au­di­tions.
