Our Mission
The Saint Paul Conservatory of Music is a music-making community, offering high quality music education to all segments of society. Here the aspirations of students of all ages and abilities are met with a commitment to excellence through creative expression, disciplined training, and performance opportunities. Thus our motto is "Enriching lives through the joy of music." The Saint Paul Conservatory of Music offers instrumental instruction to students of all ages in piano; jazz piano, guitar, strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and voice. Instruction is designed to meet the needs of each student, taking into account the background of the individual, previous experience and musical goals. Prospective students are interviewed and a careful assessment is made of each student's strengths and skills. Lessons are taught by established and recognized artist-teachers who actively perform in the Twin Cities area.
The Saint Paul Conservatory of Music subscribes to a comprehensive approach to musical studies, exposing students to the theoretical and historical aspects of music, as well as the joys of performing. This ultimately provides them with the basis for a lifetime of musical fulfillment. Studying within the context of a conservatory environment enables student to participate in recitals, repertoire classes and ensemble experiences. The Saint Paul Conservatory of Music facilities are available for these performances.
Our History
Since 1985, the Saint Paul Conservatory of Music has provided high quality music education to the metropolitan community. Originally under the auspices of The University of St. Thomas, we became an independent non-profit community music school in June of 2001. Our facility in downtown Saint Paul provides an exciting venue for continuing our commitment to providing excellence in music for all ages. As an independent organization we are able to broaden our mission as a music school ensuring that quality music is available to an ever-widening segment of our community.The Saint Paul Conservatory of Music is a music education center offering a wide-range of musical instruction for all ages, in both individual and group settings. The faculty is of the highest caliber, including artist/teachers with well-established reputations. The Conservatory has systematically developed a music program with demanding, yet age-appropriate expectations, with the ability to effectively teach the youngest of students as well as prepare those seeking to become music majors. We are also able to meet the needs of students who are life-long learners of music and music appreciation.
