Scholarship overview

The Deutschlandstipendium is a public-private scholarship created in 2011. Private donors and the federal government each fund half of every award. At the Weimar University of Music it supports talented students in music and related fields, independent of income, and is not offset against BAföG.

Recipients span voice, piano, strings, winds, guitar, conducting, music history, music theory, music education and cultural management. About 42 students were listed as holders for 2025/26 and about 24 for 2024/25, funded by donors such as the Ernst-Freiberger-Stiftung, the Vera und Volker Doppelfeld-Stiftung and the Neue Liszt-Stiftung.
