Established in 1904 The Leinster School of Music & Drama is passed its centenary year. Its long-standing tradition as both a centre for learning and examining is stronger than ever. Experienced and dedicated teachers provide excellent tuition to pupils of all ages and levels in Ireland’s Premier Music College. The emphasis is on learning through enjoyment, and while exams are encouraged they are not compulsory in the School.
Students past and present are prominent performers both at national and international level, with many appearing at The National Concert Hall and other venues throughout Ireland, and many others employed by orchestras and opera companies around the globe. Many of the current teaching staff are also firmly established in the performance arena. This experience, combined with their depth of teaching knowledge enhances the unique learning experience offered by Irelands leading Music Academy and Drama School.
