Reina Sofía School of Music - Auditions


The Reina Sofía School of Music is considered as one of the leading European Schools for especially gifted students who wish to become professional musicians. It was founded in 1991 by Paloma O'Shea as a highly professional training centre with a double goal: supporting the development of young musicians and bringing music closer to society.

Every year, 150 young musicians coming from more than 30 countries meet renowned teachers – around 80 –, under the best conditions, in an inspiring building at the centre of Madrid. The tuition-free system, thanks to the scolarships granted by our sponsors, allows those with enough merit to have access to the highest level of education.

The School organizes over 300 concerts a year with more than 60,000 attendees, in order to give students the opportunity to mature on stage.
