Part 1 of the aptitude test takes place digitally. For the online procedure (1st round), please upload 3 videos (max. 15 min per video, individual movements are possible).

•  Chamber music works of different character from three different stylistic periods including a classical work and a piece after 1900.

Each video has to start with a short introduction (your names, your application numbers, the title of the piece you are about to present). The video has to be filmed in one take and live, which means the material must not be cut or post-edited. There is no need for professional video production. Videos taken with your mobile phone are absolutely fine. However, all ensemble members should be clearly visible and audible whilst playing your instruments or singing. 

You will receive the result of the aptitude test via the application portal. If you have passed part 1 of the aptitude test, you will be invited to part 2 which will take place in June for the winter semester and in January for the summer semester.

We look forward to your application.
