The Royal Academy of Music has been training musicians to the highest professional standards since its foundation in 1822. Its impact on musical life, both in the UK and abroad, is inestimable. The music profession is permeated at all levels with Academy alumni, including classical giants Sir Simon Rattle and Sir Harrison Birtwistle and pop stars Sir Elton John and Annie Lennox.Every year some of the most talented young musicians from over 50 countries come to study here, attracted by renowned teachers and a rich culture that broadens musical horizons, develops professional creativity and fosters entrepreneurial spirit. Students benefit from an unrivalled calendar of concerts, operas, musical theatre shows and other events, in the run-up to which they work regularly with leading practitioners. Ever since its inception, the Academy has been committed to transporting its musical activities from its central London home to national and international audiences. Today, students perform at leading venues and collaborate with distinguished partners in high-profile projects. In 2015 the Academy and New York's Juilliard School joined forces in sensational concerts in Leipzig, Boston, New York and London. The Academy's recordings with both Linn and its own CD label have received critical acclaim.The Academy Museum is home to one of the world's most significant playing collections, including instruments by Stradivari, the Amati family, Broadwood and Erard, and an impressive collection of art and photography.
