Building in the 15th district

The Vienna Conservatory in Vienna was founded in 1979 as a music school . In 1993, as a conservatory, it was granted public rights by the Austrian Federal Ministry for Education and the Arts , which was revoked in 2018.

The conservatory is located in the 15th district of Vienna, Rudolfsheim Fünfhaus. Equipped with 18 classrooms, a rehearsal stage, two lecture halls, a lecture hall, two dance halls and two recording studios, the Conservatory offers artistic and educational courses in the fields of instrumental music , vocal music and musicals in seven departments . Dance and acting are run as private courses.

In 2011 the conservatory was expanded to include an additional location on Mariahilfer Straße in Vienna's 6th district . A further 18 classrooms, four ensemble rooms, four studio rooms, a ballet hall, a studio stage and the “theater on the first floor” are available to the students. The range of courses was expanded in 2012 with Department 8 - Pop Music .

According to the University Studies Act of 2002, the courses of study , which are divided into sections and semesters, are run as four and six-year main courses, as at universities. The European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) was introduced in the 2005/2006 academic year , and the Conservatory has been a member of the Association Européenne des Conservatoires, Académies de Musique et Musikhochschulen (AEC) since 2008 .

The Vienna Conservatory works together with the Prayner Conservatory . You can start some courses at the Vienna Conservatory if you have completed a preliminary course at the Prayner Conservatory.
