Dear Friends,

“Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, charm to sadness and gaiety, and life to everything.” (Plato)

The importance of the conservatory’s contribution to the musical education and creativity in Israel cannot be overstated.
The fact that this year the Conservatory marks 79 years since its establishment indicates, more than anything, its central place in Israel’s music life and activity.
Since its establishment the Conservatory has raised generations of world known musicians. Equally important is its contribution to the nurturing and expanding of circles of music and culture advocates.
The new conservatory abode, which meets the highest standards of musical institutions all over the world, has further contributed to its development, turning it to one of the most important musical education institutions in Israel.
Establishing the Friends of the Conservatory Association at the time of moving to the new abode, is a further manifestation of the bond of cooperation and reciprocity with the community. The support the Friends give the conservatory greatly contributes to its prosperity and expansion. It enables the Conservatory to offer a variety of programs and tracks of studies, and to address additional sectors of the Israeli society.

I wish to thank Advocate Maya Liquornik the former chair of the Friends of the Conservatory, who was one of the founders of the association and greatly contributed to its success. I intend to continue her commendable activity.

I call upon you to continue fostering and strengthening this significant institution. I hope that the sounds emerging from it will be heard as far and wide as possible.

Michal Rubinstein Shamgar,
Chair of the Friends of the Conservatory
