After secondary school, Ursula Keusen-Nickel attended the Cologne University of Music and studied cello with Prof. Adolf Steiner, chamber music with Prof. Maurits Frank and composition with Prof. Ernst-Otto Wölper. Following her final examination and graduate recital, she joined the city orchestra of Bonn and taught at the University of Education. She then accepted a teaching post at the Ludwig van Beethoven Music School Bonn and took over as director of the St. Augustin Music School from 1975 to 1977. She has been working as a freelance concert cellist, teacher, conductor and composer ever since. On concert tours in various European countries she became familiar with the mentality of the people there and their music. These impressions have had a lasting influence on her compositions.
