The Chamber Music Workshop is a professional workshop that comprises all classical instrumental chamber music education. Not every professor teaching chamber music was a member of the former Department of Chamber Music, as chamber music teachers were active at other departments as well (e.g. Woodwinds and Brass Department). Also, in case of instruments with special chamber music repertoire (e.g. dulcimer, percussion instruments) professors of main subjects also teach chamber music. The Chamber Music Workshop has been created to eliminate this fragmentation. Its tasks are to form policies for education, and to discuss and harmonize questions related to artistic issues and educational organization.

  
My true guiding principle...which I have been fully aware of ever since I have come upon myself as a composer: the ideal of the brotherhood of peoples, brotherhood created despite war and all conflict. It is this ideal which I work with all my power to serve through my music; this is why I do not avoid any influence, be it from Slovak, Rumanian, Arabic or any other source. The only thing that matters is that the source be pure, fresh and healthy!(Béla Bartók)
