About us

Backstage

With three locations in Cologne, Aachen and Wuppertal, the Cologne University of Music and Dance is one of the largest art colleges in Europe. We are characterised by a long history, a large number of internationally renowned graduates and lecturers, and a wide range of courses.

We offer students from over 50 nations a qualified education and a variety of experimental spaces to prepare them for their future careers. We create space for interdisciplinary exchange, for concentrated and concerted practice, for artistic and scientific projects, creative ideas and a lot of fun. You can find out what else sets us apart behind the scenes on the following pages:

Locations

A wide triangle across the Bergisches and Rhineland regions: these are our three locations in Cologne, Aachen and Wuppertal. Spatially, we are separated. Music, dance, performances, collaborations and our shared joy of playing connect us.
