Life

The daughter of an engineer received piano lessons from an early age, for example from Anna Hirzel-Langenhan , Nonne-Nymphenburg, Hermann Zilcher and Walter Lampe . Her husband Rudolf Hindemith also worked with her to perfect her game. The pianist celebrated successes at home and abroad, but ultimately remained as an assistant and then professor at the Munich Academy , where Lampe also previously taught. There she tailored her lessons individually to the needs of the students and was considered a master of music education.

Her students include Max Greger junior , Mari Holló, Annamaria Bodoky-Krause, Rudolf Kelber , Alla von Buch , Ernest Sauter , Ludger Maxsein, Martin Hilmer, Monika Leonhard, Franz Weilnhammer, Matitjahu Kellig, Berno Scharpf , Werner Heider , Manfred Eigen , Heinrich Mörtl and many more.

Two students posthumously published their compendium of piano technique .
