A new Melbourne Conservatorium of Music (MCM) has been announced for the Southbank arts precinct, adding to existing cultural infrastructure including Arts Centre Melbourne, the National Gallery of Victoria, Southbank Theatre and the Melbourne Recital Centre.
Victoria’s Acting Premier James Merlino today announced the project – a partnership between the Andrews Labor Government and the University of Melbourne – which will expand and relocate the University’s elite music education and research facility from Parkville to Southbank, opening to students in 2019.
