History
In 1967, the Swiss Jazz School was founded on the initiative of two musicians from Bern, Heinz Bigler and Tony Hostettler. The next teachers of the school were Joe Haider, Isla Eckinger and Peter Giger. In 1972, the Swiss Jazz School became an independent teaching school, which was supported by the city and the canton of Bern.[2] In this year, the school was divided in two departments.
