@3scoutsmom Though my D did not study music in Germany, she is currently a professional musician living there. She has semi weekly private coachings and lessons from faculty at a Hochschule . She said it’s very similar to the sort of situation you find at competitive schools here—if you are not majoring in music, then you cannot easily get into ensembles or take private lessons. But, even at the most competitive schools, the faculty does offer private lessons and she has found them to be relatively inexpensive. After they get to know your student they will probably turn her on to where she can practice and what some performing opportunities might be available.
