From the municipal music school in the heart of a large city to the district music school responsible for several rural communities: 933 public music schools with 20,922 teaching facilities, in addition to private providers and freelance music teachers, ensure that the distances to music are short for many people in Germany. The number of music students has risen steadily from year to year and recently reached 1.5 million.

The infographic poster ‘Wege zur Musik’ (Ways to Music) shows how music students are distributed among the 16 federal states and how high their share is in different age groups of the population. It also focuses on the infrastructure of the music schools: How far apart are the teaching facilities? How does the music school landscape differ in regions with dense, medium and low population densities?

For a lasting impression, the fourth poster of the series ‘Musical Life in Figures’ is available as a large-format quality print to hang up.
