The Sydney Conservatorium of Music incorporates a lot of history, with a lot of divisions - each of which could possibly incorporate their own article.
NSW State Conservatorium of Music (1915-1990) incorporating the Newcastle Conservatorium
Sydney Conservatorium of Music (1990-2006) as a campus of the University of Sydney
Department of Music, University of Sydney as the Arts Music unit of the Sydney Conservatorium (as of 2005)
Should each of these be dealt with in their own articles?
Also, if people could help compile a list of Con alumni... the link to Kim Walker is wrong
Why on earth has a relatively substantial chunk on a quite different part of the university recently been added? I'm going to remove it soon. If someone can be bothered, the text might be recreated in a separate article; but since this Arts department no longer exists, this would be of purely historical bearing.

Who's got a copy of Dianne ?'s book on the history of the Con, published just a few years ago? We need to cite it a number of times here. Tony (talk) 05:22, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
Changes are being made under the guise of Head of School Prof. Richard Vella, and have been greatly welcomed, bringing a new vibrance to the institution.
This is obviously not neutral, and does not represent both sides to the reaction to Prof. Vella's changes to the conservatorium program.
Also, it sounds like an advertisement.

@ Neenypicko and Conuninsw: If there have been changes to the leadership, please wait for the Conservatorium website to be updated before trying to update the Wikipedia article. Thanks! -- John of Reading ( talk) 06:24, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

One might argue that Australian Composer Hugo Alpen was a notable person who had a musical association with Sydney University which pre-dates the 'con' as evidenced by his involvement with student concerts [7] [8] Tradimus ( talk) 09:48, 30 May 2020 (UTC)

There is no mention of Hill in the article. This is fairly outrageous given the place would never have existed without his founding influence. The two founders of the NSW Conservatorium of Music in 1915 were Alfred Hill and Henri Verbrugghen. This is what the article should show. If in any doubt merely look up the Wiki on Alfred Hill! Why is this omission being pointed out only now, in 2024? Why does the NSW Conservatorium want lies told about its provenance? This is incredibly easy information to verify 2405:6E00:492:E83C:3869:2D33:D3C3:453E ( talk) 05:39, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
