The Colburn School - Archive

Founded in 1950 as the small preparatory school for the University of Southern California's School of Music, The Colburn School became an independent, not-for-profit institution in 1980 through the generous support of its benefactor, Richard D. Colburn.  Richard Colburn strongly believed that musical education should begin as early in life as possible. The School's two distinctive divisions, the School of Performing Arts and the Conservatory of Music embrace a single vision of access and excellence.  They also support a single mission: to provide the highest quality performing arts education by an outstanding faculty in an optimal environment.  In both divisions, the primary focus is on classical music and dance training with an emphasis on the performance.
