Life
Erich Marckhl received his doctorate from the University of Vienna in 1925 . From 1926 to 1936 he worked as an educator at the Federal Educational Institute in Vienna XIII, formerly a cadet school, but was dismissed for political reasons (membership of the illegal NSDAP ). He then taught from 1937 to 1939 at the college for teacher training in Dortmund . In 1939 he became a “specialist inspector for music at secondary schools” in Vienna, and from 1940–45 professor for music education at the Vienna Reich University of Music (now the University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna ). At the Musiklehranstalten Wien he held a seminar for music education and a provisional teaching examination committee.
Due to his National Socialist past, he initially remained jobless in 1945 and lived with the support of Gottfried von Eine's family in Ramsau am Dachstein (1945/46) and in Plomberg am Mondsee (1946–48). In 1948 he became director and 1949–52 director of the municipal music school in Kapfenberg . In 1948, Marckhl was given the newly established small seminar for music education at the Johann Joseph Fux Conservatory in Graz . In 1963, under First President Marckhl, the conservatory was upgraded to the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz . In 1965, Marckhl established the branch of a culture and university center in Oberschützen in Burgenland .
