Global Conservatoire

Global Conservatoire

The Global Conservatoire is a cooperation project between the mdw and four renowned music academies in London, Amsterdam, Copenhagen and New York City.

The innovative cooperation project brings together teachers and students at the five locations Vienna, New York, London, Amsterdam and Copenhagen in an online lecture hall, thus promoting the international exchange of ideas. The asynchronously designed teaching programme enables students to organise their studies individually in three time zones and to complete courses despite their busy rehearsal and practice schedules. All Global Conservatoire courses can be credited towards a degree programme at the mdw (2 ECTS).

In addition to asynchronous classes, which are designed to give maximum flexibility in scheduling, each course will also include synchronous online sessions on Zoom to deepen the exchange between teachers and students.

ELEMENTS OF SOUND - PART I


Study level: Master
Course tutor: Elisabeth Reisinger, Petra Stump-Linshalm, Heinz-Peter Linshalm

Course content:
This course is closely connected to a concert taking place during the GC Transnational Meeting in Vienna in April 2027. At its core, the course explores the unifying spirit of the GC partnership through the overarching theme of the “5 Elements”, while also examining questions of sustainability from both artistic and scholarly perspectives.
Through reading, research, and discussion, the students will explore the historical and present significance of four- and five-element concepts in music, with an initial focus on “Western art music.” Depending on the interests of the students, non‑European approaches – including those rooted in Asian philosophical traditions – may also be incorporated.

  • 05.10.2026: 4.30pm - 5.30pm (Vienna local time)
  • 19.10.2026: 4pm - 5.30pm (Vienna local time)
