music conservatory
Elite training institution
A music conservatory is a specialized school devoted to training in music performance, composition, and related disciplines.
Unlike university music departments, conservatories focus almost exclusively on practical musical training rather than academic coursework.
Students typically major in a specific instrument or voice: She studied violin at the conservatory.
The term conservatory alone often implies music, though some conservatories teach other performing arts.
