Chur strengthens music school
In Chur, the money from the music promotion grants will primarily go to the music school in future. But not exclusively.
In future, the municipal music school will be able to award further mandates to external institutions on the basis of a decision by the Chur municipal council and thus also ensure that other music promotion providers receive municipal contributions. The decision is part of a partial revision of the ordinance to the Cultural Promotion Act. Among other things, it is intended to reduce the administrative burden.
It thus rejects the original idea of expanding the list of defined institutions that receive financial support from the city in the area of extracurricular music promotion and places the municipal subsidies in a common pot. According to the city's announcement, this solution puts the music school in a strong position, but it comes with a special obligation and responsibility.
