Hall of Fame

Welcome to the "Hall of Fame" of the music school!
Here we proudly present the winners of the Music School Grand Prix of the Cultural and Social Foundation of Sparkasse Gifhorn-Wolfsburg from recent years.

The videos were produced by our colleague Andreas Barkhoff. He was supported by Mr. Tom Schmeichel.

We would like to thank all the students for their outstanding musical achievements, our colleagues at the music school for their dedicated and qualified teaching and all the parents of the young artists for their fantastic support.
