Mission & Vision
Our mission is to promote musical talents of all ages and to convey music as a cultural mandate. We see ourselves as an educational institution with a long tradition and as a cultural mediator who enriches regional and supra-regional musical life through concerts, competitions, and events. The foundation of our work is the desire not to exclude musical talents for financial reasons and to provide them with first-class education from early childhood education through to a bachelor's degree.
Target groups
The foundation's offerings are aimed equally at young talents and adult amateurs: gifted children and adolescents seeking early support (PreCollege, ANE), high school graduates and secondary school graduates wishing to pursue a practice-oriented bachelor's degree in music, and music enthusiasts who want to further their education. In addition, school partnerships (e.g., Musterschule) and international students benefit from the diverse programs.
