Creative reinvention and courageous advancement

The music and theater culture for which the HfMT works has its foundations in the culture of Europe. But our interest goes far beyond that. For a university in which people from almost fifty nations work together, the conflicts and emergencies of the present world do not take place in distant countries, but affect many of our students, teachers and friends directly. It is our original task to feel that we are part of the world with our artistic work - a world with its tensions and needs, as well as with all of its huge opportunities and the inspiring diversity of its cultures.

Under the guiding principle of artistic excellence in social responsibility, the university is in permanent processes of creative reinvention and courageous further development, in processes that repeatedly push everyone involved to their limits, in processes through which ours University challenges the world with creative impetus and inventiveness.
