History
In 1945 the renowned violoncellist and the music educator Oton Bajde (1906–1933) established the State Primary and Secondary Music School, the predecessor of today’s Conservatory, in the parish of the Protestant church in Maribor. He founded a chamber ensemble and a choir. In 1962 the school moved to its current location and changed its name to Centre for Music Education, which was the first establishment of this kind in Yugoslavia.
In that period, in 1977, the choreographer and the then Head of Ballet of the Slovene National Theatre Maribor Iko Otrin (1931–2011) founded The Ballet Elementary School, which became part of the Centre for Music Education. This school institution, however, soon after some organizational changes, was renamed into the Institute for Music and Ballet Education, then in 1981 into the Secondary School of Music and Ballet, until, in 2010, the name settled down as the the Maribor Conservatory of Music and Ballet.
Programme
The Conservatory, with its many branches in Maribor-Tabor, Šentilj, Lenart, Rače, Cerkvenjak-Vitomarci, Ruše, Selnica ob Dravi and Lovrenc na Pohorju, is divided into three parts: Art Grammar School, Music School and Ballet School.
Art Grammar School offers secondary grammar school education, including music (composition, voice training or instrument) and dance (ballet) classes, as well as orchestra and choir practice.
Preschool children, primary school children, students and adults can enrol in Music School where they develop their musical talent and performance skills as soloists or members of various ensembles and orchestras, for example, in the string orchestra, brass band and guitar orchestra. The Music School has also a Jazz and Popular Music Department.
The Ballet School is designed as a preparatory ballet and contemporary dance school, which lasts for three years and takes place on two levels: basic and more advanced, intended for students who wish to continue with their dance studies at the secondary level.
Competitions and awards
The conservatory encourages its music students and ballet dancers to participate in national and international competitions. Many its teachers and students received many awards and prizes at home and abroad, also the Prešeren Award for the highest achievements in culture in Slovenia.
