The Calcutta School of Music is one of the premier institutions in India. It was established in the year 1915 AD by Dr. Phillipé Sandré, a musician of considerable caliber, and a contemporary and friend of the famous composer Saint Saëns. It is probably the only school in the country which has such wide ranging canvas of musical disciplines covering both Indian and Western music, dance, speech training, elocution, and drama. The School is an important element of the city of Kolkata, providing liberal instruction in musical subjects on one hand, and also arranging orchestral, chamber and solo music training and concerts, as well as music appreciation sessions throughout the year.
The School was originally located at Wellesley Street in Central Calcutta. In the year 1972, the School moved into its own premises at Sunny Park. Its 90th anniversary is being celebrated in 2005-06. The school functions as a Registered Society under the Societies Registration Act XXI of 1860, as a non-profit organization, and is managed by the Principal under the guidance of the Governing Committee.
His Excellency the Governor of West Bengal is a Patron of the School.
