Malmö - the perfect city to study music!

There is undeniably something special about Malmö. The city is small enough to be able to get around everywhere by bike but big enough to have a rich cultural life. The residents come from all over the world, and this is reflected in Malmö's continental atmosphere and fantastic music scene.
