Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama
The RSAMD is Scotland's only Conservatoire, dedicated to the education of musicians, actors and associated professions to the highest international standards. The Academy comprises a School of Music, a School of Drama, formed in 1951, and the Alexander Gibson Opera School, opened in 1998. The Academy was founded in 1847 as the Glasgow Athenaeum, with a role to provide further education in commerce, science and the arts. In 1928 the School of Music was renamed the Scottish National Academy of Music and its Royal status was granted in 1944 by King George VI. In 1968, the name was changed to the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama to reflect the increasing importance of drama. The Academy was given degree-awarding powers by the Privy Council in 1994. The Academy is funded as a 'central institution' by the Scottish Executive, through the Scottish Higher Education Funding Council (SHEFC) and is attended by approximately 650 students.
The RSAMD promotes a wide range of chamber music events including concerts by both professional musicians and students.
