The euphonium class at the Haute école de musique de Genève (HEM) offers a particularly stimulating learning environment.
In addition to the teaching provided by the permanent professor, a renowned soloist and chamber musician as well as an experienced teacher, students in the HEM's tuba class benefit from the input of internationally renowned artists, who are regularly invited to give masterclasses.
The particularly stimulating learning environment values cultural diversity. The atmosphere is one that favours human contact and new friendships. Besides the individual classes, there is a large number and variety of opportunities to play in a group: orchestra sessions, chamber music or brass ensembles such as the HEM Red Flag. Simulations of orchestra contests are also regularly held.
Thanks to the close ties that the HEM maintains with the region’s professional ensembles, our students have numerous opportunities to play in renowned ensembles such as the Orchestre de la Suisse romande (OSR), the Orchestre de Chambre de Genève (OCG) or the Ensemble de musique contemporaine Contrechamps. The music scene in French-speaking Switzerland, in particular its rich fabric of fanfare ensembles, mean that there are ample opportunities for engagement, to enrich their practice and develop their network.
