The history of HTL West began in 1842 as a “commercial drawing school”. It now combines many disciplines in the fields of technology, environment and digitalization. In January 2025, the Modular Synthesizer Ensemble was a guest for the first time.
Listen to a Podcast with students.
Here is some feedback from the students:
Ghena: The workshop was really cool! I had no idea about synthesizers beforehand, but it was so exciting how we were able to find out everything for ourselves. I learned a lot about music production!”
Bashar: “Mr. Gammon was super empathetic. He didn’t just tell us what to do, he always let us work with our own ideas. I never felt overwhelmed and was able to get fully involved.”
Sven: “This workshop showed me that music and technology have a lot more to do with each other than I thought. It was exciting to see how a whole piece is created from individual sounds.”
Feedback from Prof. DI Peter Zottele, MBA, Department – IT/Media Technology
“Mr. Gammon responded sensitively to the students’ level of knowledge and made sure that no one was left out. He answered questions with patience and clarity, encouraged initiative and fostered an atmosphere in which each student felt safe to experiment creatively. Through his respectful and supportive manner, he was instrumental in allowing the students to develop freely in their creative process.”
