Share your story
Tell us your story
You don't need a dramatic story. A small moment is enough.
We are gathering voices — from students, teachers, and professionals who know first-hand the financial reality behind classical music education. You decide how much you share, and in what form.
Who is invited
Students
It doesn't matter where you study, in which country, or in which discipline. If you have something to tell, we'd like to hear it.
Teachers
Voice only. Text only. Fully anonymous. Whatever you need in order to speak — we will make it work.
Alumni & Professionals
What shaped you financially as a young musician? What do you wish you had known then?

How it works
- 01
Send us a short email — tell us who you are and in what form you'd like to speak.
- 02
We reply with a few questions and suggest a time and place (Stella Vorarlberg, a quiet café in Feldkirch, or online).
- 03
Before the conversation we send you a short consent form — you mark what you want to share and what you don't.
- 04
The conversation runs about 30 to 60 minutes. We prepare a few questions to make starting easier — the rest is your story.
- 05
Before anything is published, you receive the material and give your final OK.

You stay in control at every step. We never share anything without your explicit consent. Recordings are stored securely and deleted on request after the project.
