In our HKB Composition / Creative Practice study program (BA & MA) we support you in developing your artistic skills in composing, multimedia, music staging, performing, improvising, théâtre musical, audio and video programming, or inter- and transdisciplinary creation.
We encourage you to follow your own artistic path which may cover composition, interpretation, performance as well as a composer-performer profile.
Our team including performers, composers, and stage directors is here to support students' personal developments with an individual and flexible curriculum. Our students are creating their own curriculum by their choice of courses and mentors (including Simon Steen-Andersen, Franziska Baumann, Angela Bürger, Teresa Carrasco, Xavier Dayer, Leo Dick, Cathy Van Eck, Gilbert Nouno, Peter Kraut, and others).
In 2023 our invited composers included Matthew Shlomowitz, Pierre Jodlowski, and Trond Reinholdtsen.
By providing our students with an electronic studio, a black-box stage with lighting/audio/video equipment and necessary technical support we are enabling them to carry out their own musical projects.
Our students include graduates who are discovering the world of creative practices as well as established composers who seek an enlargement of their professional networks. We are proud of this community of people from all over the world that provides for intensive musical, cultural and personal exchange.
