The Bangalore Conservatory

India’s First Music Degree College

We began with a Vision to teach, and train young people in the Art of Christian Worship. That initial vision has grown into four world-class bachelors degree programs and a Master of Music Education program which is comparable to similar programs in some of best reputed schools in the world.

Showcase

 

“Dear Diary” by Incogni2 (video produced by some
of our students during lockdown.)

This is a song that talks about a major worldly issue, orphans who are left wondering what they did wrong to be left alone without a family. We also wanted to raise awareness about how the little things we do can make a difference for them, not just by adoption but also funding a child in need.

Building People to Build a Better World through Music

Summer Music Seminar

SMS began in 1998 as an 11-week evening program where professionals could get quality formal music training and still maintain their careers. Students came from 7-10 pm Monday through Friday for classes in writing skills, aural skills, and performance. That has grown to a 6-week full time program which includes music writing, aural, keyboard and performance skills. All participants are required to prepare and perform in the culminating concert in the bells choir and concert choir. This program is self-contained and can lead to a Certificate, and is the first six units of any of the Bachelor of Music Degree programs. It may be the most difficult and challenging and rewarding six weeks of your life.

Dates of SMS :   13th May – 21st June 2024
