WHAT IS MUSIC IN THE BOX?
Music in the Box was founded in 2020 as an educational startup by Sebastian Bürg and Felix Unger.
What originally started as a project with a pure focus on music has now developed into a broad educational offering that encompasses many forms of media as well as media education.
The focus is on practical training and creative project days related to music, media education and digital creativity.
OUR TEAM
We are passionate music and media educators and consider it a privilege to be able to pass on our knowledge and skills.
