Sydney Conservatorium of Music

The Conservatorium is located along the continuation of the walk through the Botanic Garden. The building and its setting are both charming. The structure itself is very impressive, with several halls and teaching spaces. If you’re lucky, as I was, you might get to attend a student concert — a wonderful opportunity to appreciate their high level of performance. Even without a performance, the place is beautiful and well worth a visit.

Located at 1 Conservatorium Road, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia 🇦🇺 This beautiful building had been on my bucket list of places to visit for a long time and today I finally got my chance. It was absolutely worth the visit. It’s such an iconic building in Sydney. Our group, which consisted of elderly people and also people with disabilities came to enjoy the Lunchbreak concert which are held on Wednesdays and Thursdays. It’s a 🆓 Free concert 🎶 but a gold coin donation is recommended. The hall where the concert is held (Verbrugghen Hall) is beautiful and the seats are very comfortable. It’s a first come, first serve as to what seats you get. Fortunately for us, there wasn’t an awful lot of people today so we were able to spread out. The building itself is beautiful. It incorporates the old Government House stables (the castle like building) and a new modern concrete structure that was built underground. It’s a building rich in history dating back to 1915 when it was founded by Belgium conductor and violinist Henri Verbrugghen. . I really loved the display honouring the First Nations people and also the first settlement in the Circular Quay area. I didn’t realise, there’s also a

Attended the Australian Indian Orchestra's recital of AR Rahman classics. It was a fantastic performance and the venue was great. Unfortunately there was an in considerate parent who brought their toddler to the recital, who repeatedly disturbed the show. The venue should impose stricter rules around bring kids under a certain age.

The first Conservatorium in the Southern Hemisphere! The newer addition has done a fantastic job of sharing Sydney's history, including an old cistern, drain, pottery pieces and writeup about the Gadigal people. Lovely to come in and have a poke around even if you're not going to a performance.

🧶Rating: 5/5 💎The Layout: The library is on the second floor, but when you walk into the building you’ll be on the third. When you walk in and look to the left you’ll see a counter for asking questions, and if you continue going straight you’ll notice a little section for games and knitting. After passing the knitting and games section you’ll see a few shelves and a lot of tables to sit at. Some tables are to the right edge of the library and they’re a bit more isolated. The tables and chairs are kind of sorted out into mini cubicles and some of them have a charger and some don’t. There’s a downstairs and they have a good amount of seats and seats with cushions. There’s also more of a book section downstairs than there is upstairs. 🎲My experience: I was randomly looking up libraries near me on google maps and this place popped up, and I was looking for reviews to see if it was good to go to or not and I only saw 3 reviews and they barely had any pictures so I thought that I could do a review. While I was taking pictures and videos, I came across a knitting section where they literally had everything you needed for knitting and I immediately stopped taking pictures and sat down
