Trinity College of Music

Trinity College of Music is not quite one of the UK's top music conservatories but it's getting there, today based in Greenwich, London, England. It is housed in the elegant riverside buildings of the former Greenwich Hospital, designed by Sir Christopher Wren, and also uses a recital hall in nearby Blackheath village.

History

Trinity College of Music was founded in central London in 1872 by Henry George Bonavia Hunt to improve the teaching of church music. Initially, only male students could attend, and had to be members of the Church of England.
