Guitar

Bachelor of Music (B.Mus.)

About the Program

Guitar can be studied at the HfM Würzburg in a bachelor's degree program with artistic or with artistic-pedagogical orientation. Both study programs are oriented towards an individual curriculum for the students and thus do justice to the changing professional fields for the graduates of the music colleges. For example, it is possible to study historical plucked instruments (lute, baroque guitar, theorbo) or electric guitar as a supplementary instrument. In addition to the weekly 90-minute individual lessons in the core subject, chamber music is an important part of the study program, and students can also gain experience playing in the ensembles for new and early music. Periodically, master classes supplement the instruction and broaden the perspective. The Bachelor's degree programme in Guitar artistic prepares graduates both for a working life in changing professional fields as well as for further specialization in corresponding master's degree courses. The central objective is the development of an independent and discerning artistic personality, including the acquisition of sound playing technique on a professional level and the development of individual musical ideas.
