Most children start playing an instrument during their primary school years. At this age, lessons are playful and children learn the most important musical basics as well as how to play their instrument. They also gradually incorporate practicing into their daily routine and gain their first experience of playing together.
Which instruments can you learn?
A large number of different instruments can be learned at the Ludwig van Beethoven Music School. In addition to the particularly popular instruments of piano, guitar, recorder and percussion, our teachers teach all wind and string instruments that are used in the classical-romantic symphony orchestra. The Ludwig van Beethoven Music School also offers lessons in electric guitar, electric violin and electric bass.
Most students learn their instrument in private lessons. However, it is also possible to book partner lessons or small group lessons. If a homogeneous group is found in terms of learning behavior, these forms of teaching offer many advantages from a didactic point of view. At the beginning, all pupils in regular lessons are given a trial period. This serves to get to know the teacher and, if necessary, the instrument in question.
Ensembles
Making music is especially fun when you play together with others. That's why the music school offers ensembles from primary school age, which can be attended free of charge as so-called supplementary subjects.
Vocal training usually starts a little later than instrumental training. Individual singing lessons are usually only really useful from the age of 12. Until then, participation in one of the music school's children's choirs is the best training for the voice.
