Open studies programme
In the open studies programme, you can practise instrument- and vocal studies without any age and municipal restrictions. Adult ballet classes are also available.
In the open studies programme, students do not have to complete study modules, perform at student concerts, play in an orchestra or attend music classes, but if they so wish, they can attend these as well if there are places available in the groups.
Teaching in the open studies programme is not basic art education and is not financially covered by the state.
Instrument studies
Teaching in the open studies programme is aimed at all ages and the duration of the studies is not limited. The student chooses an appropriate alternative in the open studies programme during the school year. The objectives and content of the studies are determined by the situation and the students.
In the music studies, the student is also offered the opportunity to collaborate and study the basics of music if there is space in the groups. If the student so wishes, the in-depth curriculum for basic art education can be followed.
