A place for musical transmission

The Essaouira Music Conservatory is located on Rue Marrakech in Dar Etalib, a former consular residence in the medina. Opened in the late 1990s, it contributes to musical transmission in a city recognised for the diversity of its traditions.

Listed subjects include solfège, guitar, violin, oud and piano, together with Andalusian music and malhun. Courses, levels, age conditions and enrolment periods should be confirmed with the administration.

From learning to performance

Like other conservatories, the institution combines technical learning, theory and collective practice. Auditions, ensembles and educational concerts can contribute to local cultural life and connect with the city’s festivals and stages.

This long-term educational mission complements performance venues by training learners and maintaining local access to artistic education.
