The Hampstead Conservatoire was a private college for music and the arts at 64, Eton Avenue, Swiss Cottage, London.[1] The building, previously the Eton Avenue Hall, was reconstructed in 1890.[2] It was equipped with a large pipe organ, built in 1898 by the London firm of Henry Willis & Sons[3] with forty-three stops spread over four manuals and pedals. The hey-day of the conservatoire was 1896 - 1905, when its Principal was Cecil Sharp.[4] Arnold Bax was one of its pupils between 1898 and 1900.[5] It was also notable for an early and celebrated production of Dido and Aeneas in 1900 by Martin Shaw and Gordon Craig.[6] The organ was removed and transferred to St Peter's Parish Church, Brighton in 1910.[7] The conservatoire had closed by 1928 when the building was converted into the Embassy Theatre. The building is now part of the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama[8] References1. ^remotegoat website {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110720094852/http://www.remotegoat.co.uk/venue_view.php?uid=187 |date=2011-07-20 }} {{coord|51.5442|-0.1738|type:landmark_region:GB|display=title}}2. ^The Theatres Trust 3. ^{{cite web|title=The National Pipe Organ Register - the Hampstead Conservatoire of Music|url=http://www.npor.org.uk/cgi-bin/Rsearch.cgi?Fn=Rsearch&rec_index=D03257}} 4. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/36040 |title= Sharp, Cecil James |last=Heaney |first=Michael |date=2004 |work=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography|publisher=Oxford University Press}} 5. ^{{cite web|url= http://www.oxforddnb.com/view/article/30645 |title= Bax, Sir Arnold Edward Trevor |last=Foreman |first=Lewis |date=2004 |work=Oxford Dictionary of National Biography|publisher=Oxford University Press}} 6. ^{{cite book |title= Edward Gordon Craig: a Vision of Theatre| last=Innes | first=Christopher | publisher= Taylor & Francis |year= 1998| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Gu-a8k2CjYQC&printsec=frontcover&dq=gordon+craig+innes#v=onepage&q=&f=false}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=The National Pipe Organ Register - St Peter's, Brighton: The Willis Organ|url=http://www.npor.org.uk/cgi-bin/Rsearch.cgi?Fn=Rsearch&rec_index=N00951}} 8. ^British History Online: Hampstead Social and Cultural Activities 1 : Music schools in London |
