KON Summer School 2025
The Hamburger Konservatorium Summer School is designed to enhance individual performance skills and artistic expression. It aims to support students in aligning their personal academic plans with an immersive overseas study experience while strengthening their artistic and educational background.
The program is led by professors and experienced instructors from the Hamburger Konservatorium and other prestigious German music institutions. Participants will experience high-quality music education through specialized seminars, student-faculty concerts, and various interactive learning formats. This provides a comprehensive platform for musical and cultural exchange, making it an ideal opportunity for students who plan to study Music in the furture or wish to improve their musical understanding and performance abilities.
Additionally, the Hamburger Konservatorium offers an early application pathway for its preparatory program, allowing participants to assess their current level, gain insights into studying abroad, and refine their academic and career goals for a more suitable future development plan.
