COOPERATIONS
Creating synergies, meeting people, working together, making music together, leveraging institutions and their capacities, and contributing your own expertise—all of this is easier and results-oriented with our cooperation partners.

Early musical education

Wolfgang Ernst High School
Since 2019, MuKS lecturers have been giving instrumental lessons as part of the project "ZusammenSpiel Musik"
Rauher Berg eV
The Rockers from Rauher Berg are a cooperative effort between the Büdingen Music and Art School and the Rauher Berg Home and Workshops in Gelnhaar. The association provides space for the rock/pop ensemble and assigns a coach to play with the band, who also serves as a coach within the band.
With the start of funding from the VdM (Association of German Music Schools) in 2009, the teaching hours were extended, the repertoire expanded, and performances, which had previously been limited almost exclusively to events at the Rauher Berg Association of Musicians and Workshops for People in Need of Spiritual Care, were expanded to include the region. Lessons are held weekly during school term time, and if necessary during vacations—for example, when performances are scheduled—for an entire year.
Thomas Appel has led the ensemble since 2006
Volunteer Agency Büdingen eV
The Volunteer Agency is our third alliance partner in the "Culture Makes You Strong" project, which enables us to offer early musical education in daycare centers.
Büdingen City School
At the Büdingen City School, the music and art school offers several instrumental clubs.
Our instructors will introduce the keyboard and violin. Afterward, the children can choose one of the instruments and submit their expression of interest at school.
After group allocation and registration with the MuKS, lessons will then take place in the rooms of the city school in small groups for €48.50 (including instrument).
