Time for knowledge, concerts and competitions, time for you

In addition to your individual lessons, many other subjects await you, music theory and ear training, for example, correpetition, chamber music and new music. We also organize regular workshops that show you, among other things, how to reach your audience from a stage and what mental training can do for you, in which you learn about improvisation and we offer you performance coaching.

One of our goals is to organize your studies in such a way that there is still time for family, friends and school (more about this in the FAQ): At the Young Academy, we care about what's important to you. Will there still be enough time for concerts and competitions? Absolutely!
