From 1968 Hoerburger worked at the University of Regensburg as one of the leading ethnomusicologists in research and teaching until his retirement in 1976.

On numerous research trips he visited the following countries: Romania (1958), what was then Yugoslavia (1959), Greece (1959, 1965, 1970, 1972, 1973), Afghanistan , Nepal (1966, 1968) and Taiwan (1976). The trip to Afghanistan in particular was of particular importance, as Hörburger collected numerous materials there on Afghan music and culture, which helped to preserve the Afghan cultural heritage.
