A Lovely Concert at The Royal Conservatory

[Asian Nicole]

Hello Gentlemen,

It's Asian Nicole. A friend of mine who is from Vancouver invited me to see a special concert at The Royal Conservatory on April 30th, 2017. This was my first time to see a concert there, and I really enjoyed it.

The Royal Conservatory of Music, branded as The Royal Conservatory, is a music education business and performance venue headquartered in Toronto. It was founded in 1886 by Edward Fisher as The Toronto Conservatory of Music. Edward Fisher was a young organist born in the United States. The Conservatory became the first institution of its kind in Canada: a school dedicated to the training of singers and musicians, and also to instilling a love of music in young children.

In 1947, King George VI incorporated the organization through royal charter. Its Toronto home was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1995, in recognition of the institution's significant influence on music education in Canada.
