A Legacy of Excellence, since 1990

THE HEART OF OUR BEGINNING

The Academy of Music was established in 1990, born from the vision of its founding Principal Mr. Rowland D'Costa to create a home for musical inspiration that transcends four walls. As a family-led institution, The Academy was built on a fundamental belief: to gift your child a talent is to give them a companion for life. What began as a dedicated sanctuary for creativity has grown into a prestigious community where the joy of discovery is as vital as technical skill.

Rooted in a 35-year heritage and now led by its second generation, The Academy remains a vibrant home for musical excellence. We blend Trinity College London standards with soulful expression to help students aged 8 to 80 find their voice. Across our online, home, and studio lessons, our leadership ensures that the welcoming philosophy of our past remains the heartbeat of every student's future.

The Academy stands as a shared belief that the magic of sound belongs to every stage of life. Through our Togetherness Outreach, our students take their talent beyond the classroom to the wider community. We remain dedicated to the idea that a musical talent is a portable gift—one that is most impactful when it brings different generations together.
