history

The Kötzschenbrodaer music director Bruno Krumbholz, head of the city ​​orchestra founded in 1871, called Lössnitz-Kapelle , built a villa in 1898 in what was then Blücherstraße 9 (today Bernhard-Voß-Straße 23).

Orchestral school

In order to attract young talent for the professional Kötzschenbrodaer Stadtkapelle, the director at the time Krumbholz founded a private music school in 1897, which was only housed in the restaurant building of the Lößnitzer Hof (Meißner Straße 202, at that time still Zur Gute Hoffnung ). A year later he moved the school to his newly built villa on Blücherstrasse. In 1908 the Saxon Ministry of Culture and Public Education under Heinrich Gustav Beck approved the orchestral musician training course there; At the same time, they integrated this into the vocational training school of the municipality of Kötzschenbroda, which operated an independent specialist class for music students until the First World War .

The chapel was closed at the beginning of the World War. Krumbholz and his son Kurt revived the town band in 1919, and both died in 1923.

School for orchestras and musicians

Krumbholz 'successor was the concertmaster Wilhelm Laudel (1881–1964), who was officially appointed town music director in 1924, probably in connection with the preservation of town charter after the unification of the western loessnitz villages into the town of Kötzschenbroda . Laudel took over Krumbholz's villa, which he subsequently used as his residence. In coordination with the city, Laudel opened the school for orchestras and musicians , commonly known at the time as the “ city ​​pipe ”, jointly sponsored by the city orchestra and the Kötzschenbroda vocational school . Up to 60 boys between the ages of 14 and 17 housed in the boarding school received theoretical and practical training there on two musical instruments for three to four years. The aim was to qualify for use in civil orchestras as well as in military bands .

The classrooms were located both in the villa and in the vocational school building at today's Hermann-Ilgen-Strasse 35 (today the Kötzschenbroda Middle School ). The teachers for the individual lessons came from the Sächsische Staatskapelle in Dresden or from the Dresden Philharmonic , while Laudel taught the orchestra. One of the best-known teachers working there was Heinrich Knauer , chamber virtuoso and solo timpanist of the Dresden State Orchestra and founder of the Dresden drum school, a special way of playing and playing the snare drum, which originated in this institution and which forms the basis of today's worldwide training for orchestral drummers .

The “institution widely recognized as exemplary” was taken over by the city in April 1943 as a public vocational school for orchestral musicians . After the Second World War , Laudel was able to buy back the school and continue to operate it as the “music apprentice department” of his orchestra.

In October 1950, the Saxon Ministry for National Education decided to transfer all students from local and private music schools to the state-run music schools. At the beginning of 1951, his school was officially closed against Laudel's protest.

Todays use

Today the building with the courtyard behind it and the buildings there is used by a specialist electrical company.
