As one of the leading international institutions of its kind, the Department for String & Plucked Instruments offers young musicians a top-class education and prepares them for modern concert life. Students can take advantage of numerous performance opportunities, competitions, chamber music festivals, orchestral productions, international exchange programmes and interdisciplinary projects, all within the unique atmosphere of a city steeped in musical heritage.

The Department of String and Plucked Instruments, the Mozarteum's largest department, is part of one of the most versatile art universities in Europe. As such, it offers students many opportunities for lively exchange with the most diverse forms of music, art and research. Furthermore, Salzburg offers ideal conditions for concentrated and inspired work. In the midst of an incredible landscape, students can experience performances of operas and concerts by international artists throughout the year in the city that is home to the Salzburg Festival and the International Mozart Week. Here, everyone can find and develop their individual skills and artistic voice.
