Music schools are educational institutions whose main tasks are to provide a basic musical education, to train the next generation of amateur and amateur musicians, to identify and promote talented young people and to prepare them for professional studies.

Fees are charged for lessons at music schools and for the provision of musical instruments, which are set out in the music school fee regulations.

Information on music schools in Lower Saxony can be found, for example, on the website of the State Association of Music Schools in Lower Saxony.

There are now also many cooperation projects between music schools and general education schools. Information on this can be found on the Niedersächsischer Bildungsserver .
