Student Spotlight
Michael F. - Guitarist
What is your favorite thing about School of Rock Vienna? I love how dedicated and passionate everyone is about playing music and how much fun it is to play as a band.
What is one of your favorite things you’ve learned from your time here so far? I've learned that while playing music on your own is great and fun, playing music as a band and having it sound good is one of the best and most enlightening experiences a musician can have. It is totally different from anything else you'll do and is something every musician should do.
What advice would you give to all the new SOR student musicians? To anybody that is just starting out with music, I always say that there will be moments when you feel like you're not getting anywhere, and aren't improving. But even when you feel like that, you should never stop, because no matter what you do with music you're always improving, and there's always a way to better yourself as a musician.

2. Metallica
3. Green Day
4. Queen
5. Led Zeppelin
If you could be in any band or artist (past or present) who would it be and why? I would have wanted to be in the Jimi Hendrix Experience, because even though they were only around for three years, I can't think of another band that has had as much impact on music in such a short amount of time. Plus, basically inventing classis Rock & Roll as we know it today!
