The Institute of Music at the University of Oldenburg mourns the loss of its long-serving MTV staff member, Roswitha Werner-Mann, who passed away on 10 October 2026.

Ms Werner-Mann had worked at the administrative office of the Institute of Music and the Institute of Art and Visual Culture since the 1970s. For more than four decades, she accompanied and supported the development of the departments with great dedication and warmth. As a valued colleague and key point of contact in the Office, she always had an open ear for lecturers, students and visitors alike, and reliably kept the threads of the Institute of Music’s administration together. Her commitment and friendly nature have left a lasting mark on life and work at the Institute of Music. We shall honour her memory.
