История
[ редактировать ]
Когда в 1887 году школа была основана преподобным Робертом Лейнгом, она была названа консерваторией Галифакс . Он был основан в соответствии с главой 91 Деяний законодательного органа Новой Шотландии. В 1891 году было проведено первое публичное выступление, концерт Дрезденского трио. [ 2 ]
In 1921, under a Special Act of the Province of Nova Scotia, the Halifax Conservatory of Music (HCM) was incorporated. Beginning in 1954, the school offered ballroom dancing instruction.[2]
In 1954 the Halifax Conservatory of Music (HCM) bought the assets of the Maritime Academy of Music (MAM), and the school was renamed the Maritime Conservatory of Music.[3][4]
In its initial years, the school awarded degrees through Dalhousie University, but became an independent institution in 1962.[1] In 1998 the school changed its name again to the Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts to reflect the school's expansion into other performance mediums beyond music. This name change was legally changed when the Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts was confirmed in Chapter 11 of the Acts of 2006, titled The Maritime Conservatory Reorganization Act, which received Royal Assent on July 14, 2006.
The Conservatory moved over seven times sharing and renting space until 1996 when it moved to the Chebucto School, a historic 1910 landmark building in the West End of Halifax.[5] The Conservatory acquired ownership of the Chebucto Road School in 1997 from the City of Halifax.[6] The municipality sold the building for a dollar with the stipulation that close to half a million dollars be spent on renovations. (The Chebucto Road School, built in 1910, served as a morgue following the 1917 Halifax Explosion.)
In February 2018, the Conservatory was temporarily closed when a section of its roof was blown off during a wind storm.[7]
Present day
[edit]
The Maritime Conservatory of Performing Arts continues to offer an accessible and comprehensive program of dance and music instruction, accommodating students of all ages and levels of ability.[8][9]
As of 2018, the Conservatory was registered as a private career college with the Labour and Advanced Education Department of Nova Scotia. The School of Dance now offers a two-year advanced diploma for dance instructors.[10]
The school hosts and organizes a variety of concerts and dance performances.[11][12] Each year the National Ballet School holds auditions there,[13] and the conservatory hosts a chamber orchestra.[14]
