The ECOLE NORMALE DE MUSIQUE was founded in 1919 by the famous pianist Alfred Cortot and his partner Auguste Mangeot. From the very beginning, the institution has enjoyed a world-wide reputation for the quality of its music instruction with such faculty members as Pablo Casals, Nadia Boulanger, Wanda Landowska, Paul Dukas, Arthur Honegger, etc.

The School is officially approved by the State (Ministry of Culture and Communication)

It also trained a number of well known concertists and composers . Dinu Lipatti, Samson François, Igor Markevitch...among many other celebrities studied in the Belle Epoque architectural environment of this Parisian temple of classical music.

Today, the institution is managed by Henri Heugel.

The ECOLE NORMALE DE MUSIQUE gathers 1100 students and 140 faculty members who teach all disciplines of classical music including theoretical classes, orchestra conducting and composition.

The School is located in the heart of Paris and registered as a "Historical Landmark" by the French Administration. Its concert hall, the Salle Cortot, is an "Art Deco" masterpiece designed by the architect Auguste Perret, who also conceived the Théâtre des Champs Elysées in Paris.
