The success of our former students has contributed to the School’s reputation as one of the world’s leading conservatoires.

In 2009 we launched a campaign to reconnect with as many as alumni as possible to invite them to a special 40th anniversary reunion which took place in February 2010.

40th Anniversary Reunion
The reunion was a huge success with 300 alumni attending from across the globe. Alumni were treated to performances by our postgraduate company EDge and were soon exploring the building, catching up with old friends and making new professional contacts. View a selection of some of the best photos from the evening below; prints are also available to purchase here.

Upcoming alumni events will be posted here.
