Elementary Education
Early musical development allows children to experience how much joy there is in making music, singing and dancing together. Children are introduced to music in a playful way without any pressure to perform. Long-term studies have shown that musical experience strongly promotes the holistic development of children in the social, creative and intellectual areas. The development of musical abilities through the holistic, child-oriented engagement with and around music is particularly important to the colleagues in the elementary section of the music school.
The following musical components are promoted in the elementary section:
- Elementary instrumental playing with body instruments and Orff instruments
- Experiencing and developing one's own voice and singing and learning songs
- Expressing music in movement (rhythm) and learning dances
- Elementary graphic notation from purely graphic representation to writing music
- Getting to know different instruments, making your own instruments

- Over the course of two years, children are introduced to the various areas of music (movement, voice, rhythm, instrumental playing, graphic notation/music theory and instrument theory) in an age-appropriate and holistic way in line with the successful "Music and Dance for Children" concept. The aim is to learn an instrument in specialist lessons after completing the course and starting school or to get to know the various instruments on offer in the instrument carousel. Four accompanying children's booklets offer the opportunity to deepen the experience with the parents.

Vocal lessons
-
Jazz/Rock/Pop Vocal
Age: from 14 years
Anyone can learn to sing! In singing lessons we work exclusively with the voice, so no instrument is needed. In addition to breathing techniques, you can use your voice to learn all kinds of sounds and tones so that you can learn to sing in a wide variety of musical styles. You do not need any previous experience or knowledge of sheet music to take part in singing lessons.
Which ensembles can I sing in? As an experienced singer, you can sing in the vocal training group or in the jazz and pop choir and take part in performances.
Class locations: Stadtmitte, Goetheschule
Tuition costs: See registration/fee schedule -
Voice training
The voice training group consists mainly of choir singers who enjoy exploring their voices in more detail. They deal in detail with vocal physiology, various technical approaches and music theory. Furthermore, short pieces are rehearsed in a small ensemble and occasionally performed. Voice training in group lessons is ideal for singers who want to delve deeper into the subject without wanting to take individual lessons. Despite the relaxed atmosphere, the small group thrives on the commitment and curiosity of its members.
