For more than 60 years, the Zimbabwe Academy of Music has stood for ambition, hope and optimism. Thousands of children and adults have studied music and taken international exams at its Bulawayo home. In recent years it has been the driving force behind the Bulawayo Music Festival, which has continued bringing celebrated international artists to Zimbabwe throughout dark times.The Academy's facilities include the Robert Sibson Hall which seats 400 people and is widely regarded as acoustically the finest small concert hall in southern Africa. It possesses two Model D Steinways, both fine instruments, with one generally acknowledged to be the best piano in Zimbabwe. The hall plays host to over a hundred Academy events annually and is also available for hire for all forms of music, plus conferences, etc.The Academy operates on a programme of three eleven-week terms that coincide with the school terms, and all registered students receive a weekly lesson in the term, usually of 30 minutes duration, but lessons can be longer by arrangement. The Academy remains open throughout the year and lessons continue during school holidays where required.
