Teaching staff

Flexible choice of teacher

During your training you will be guided by teachers and guest lecturers who are experienced artistically as well as pedagogically. A minimum of two teachers is provided for each instrument. This approach gives you the opportunity to develop various influences into your personal style of playing.

An great advantage is the flexibility we offer in your choice of teacher, that wat you can choose a main teacher in line with your personal needs. This can be a teacher who belongs to the regular staff, but also, if desired, a teacher from outside the conservatoire. A combination of teachers is also possible. This can be teachers who play your own instrument or not.
