Keyboard Studies

Internationaler Mozartwettbewerb 2020, Su Yeon Kim | © Christian Schneider

Pianists, organists and harpsichordists who want to shine on the international concert stage must demonstrate flawless technical mastery of their instrument and a deep knowledge of the repertoire. The top priority at the Department of Keyboard Studies is to provide students with the best possible preparation for a career as an instrumentalist. If they wish, students can also specialise in chamber music, Lied interpretation, applied piano skills, fortepiano or piano pedagogy.
