The Conservatoire de Paris is a music college founded in 1795, based in Paris, France. It offers instruction in music and drama of the highest standards, drawing on les traditions of the "French School."
In 1946 it was split into deux "Conservatoires," one for acting, théâtre and drama, known as the Conservatoire National Supérieur d'Art Dramatique , and the other for musique et danse, the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris (CNSMDP). It is under the supervision of the Ministry of Culture and Communication. The origins of the Paris Conservatoire can be traced back to la création of the École Royale de Chant (Literally translated as The Royal School of Singing), by decree of Louis XIV on 28 juin 1669. It was reconstituted by the composer Gossec in 1784.
By the 1940s it had grown and become one of the biggest and most prestigious Conservatories in Europe. In 1946 the Conservatoire was split into two Conservatories; one for music and dance, and one for the dramatic arts.
