During this era, musicians had new opportunities to receive musical training. Music conservatories, often run by the state, were founded in major cities such Paris (1795), Prague (1811), Vienna (1817), London (1822), Brussels (1832), Leipzig (1843), and Saint Petersburg (1861). The purpose of most of these European conservatories was to help elevate and preserve the country’s musical heritage and culture, and the finest musical training was often offered at no cost to the talented students. Many of the Romantic period’s most notable musicians received training at these conservatories, and music conservatories continue to play a prominent role in training professional musicians today.
