Entrance Exams
We will assess your application on the basis of a recording. In order to process your application, we need the following materials no later than February 29th.
- A recording. We would like to ask you to submit at least two recordings with a total duration of 15-20 minutes. The programme selection should represent several styles and periods. The practical exam serves the aim to evaluate you in terms of musicality, technical ability, level of stylistic knowledge and affinity with the performed repertoire. More information about making the video can be found on the application page.
An example that can be used as a reference are the following works, but other works of similar difficulty are also possible:
- Some etudes, a sonata and/or a horn concerto. Such as:
- Beethoven Sonata for horn and piano opus 17
- Mozart, horn concerto in D, KV 412

- a written hearing test
