Academic
studies
As part of the
curriculum of the Kurt-Singer-Institute,
students of the Hanns Eisler School of Music
Berlin and University of the Arts Berlin are
taught the physical and mental basics of
making music and practicing music in a
practice-oriented way.
In addition, an extensive course programme on
musicians’ health in the areas of physical
training and movement theory, body perception
training (Feldenkrais, Alexander Technique,
breathing theory) as well as mental and
performance training serves to extend the
artistic expression possibilities when making
music, to increase safety in performance
situations and to prevent health disorders.

education
In addition, the
KSI offers a part-time certificate course in
music physiology in everyday artistic
practice, which provides a practical and
theoretical overview of prevention options to
avoid health problems of musicians.
