Classical and popular music

According to its own account, in 1988 the school set up the first department for popular music in Austria. Today both directions run side by side:

• Elementary music: Sing- und Tanzzwerge (singing and dancing for little ones) from 2.5 years, early music education for four- to five-year-olds
• Classical: children's singing school, solo singing, recorder and flute, piano, organ, violin, cello, guitar, clarinet and brass instruments
• Popular music: singing, electric guitar, saxophone, piano, electric bass and drums
• Also: ear training, rhythmics, music theory, harmony, a drum and bass workshop and several ensembles

According to the school, the teachers themselves work as musicians, composers and arrangers.
