Musikunterricht vs Musikschule

music school

'die Musikschule' and 'der Musikunterricht' are closely connected, but they do not mean the same thing. The Musikschule is the place or institution. The Musikunterricht is the lesson or course in which you learn music. So you can have Musikunterricht at a Musikschule. The words can be confused because people often talk about both in the same situation. If you are talking about the building, the organization, or registration, 'Musikschule' fits. If you are talking about the specific lesson, 'Musikunterricht' fits.
