Location
The academy is situated in the impressive 17th century Stična Manor in the old centre of Ljubljana. Some of the courses are also run at the Glasbena matica premises, where the academy was stationed until 1985. For some years now, the 3 Slovene artistic academies have been working towards a new architectural project for a new common educational centre for the arts.
Departments and programmes
The Departments of Composition and Music Theory, Conducting, Singing, Keyboard Instruments, String Instruments, Wind Instruments, Brass Instruments, Percussion Instruments, and the Department of Music Education and Sacred Music compose the academy's main departments.
Jazz music is currently only available as an elective course in the bachelor-s degree programme of Musical Art, but there are plans to establish it as an independent, interdepartmental division of jazz studies sometime in the near future. The same stands for Early Music.
History
The first state music school in the region of today's Slovenia was set up in Ljubljana back in 1807. Later, this was followed by the "Music School at the Philharmonic Society" (1821–1919), the first music school with a modern curriculum. Yet, it was only in 1872, when the cultural society Glasbena matica Ljubljana was founded, that an initiative to create an institution for higher music education began to surface. These endeavours came to fruition in 1919 with the establishment of the "Yugoslavian Conservatorium of the Glasbena Matica".
In 1939, this structure became the Music Academy, which ran throughout WWII and was renamed in 1945 as the Academy of Music. In the years to come, the academy gained many new departments, among them, the Department for Composition and Conducting and the Department of the History of Folklore. The secondary school programme split from the academy in 1953 to become an independent institution, now the Ljubljana Music and Ballet Conservatory. The academy officially became a part of the University of Ljubljana in 1975.
International cooperation
The University of Ljubljana facilitates student exchange according to the programmes of CEEPUS (Central European Exchange Programme), Erasmus, Leonardo da Vinci, and bilateral agreements. Each year, the Department of Composition and Music Theory organises the International Solfège Competition. The Academy of Music Symphony Orchestra regularly participates at Young Euro Classics, the international festival of the best European youth orchestras, organised in Germany.
Numerous graduates of the UL Academy of Music also play as members and soloists in some of the world's most renowned orchestras.
