朱利亚音乐学院

A Brief History

At the time The Juilliard School was founded in 1905 (as the Institute of Musical Art), the idea of establishing a music academy in America to rival the European conservatories was a novel one. But Dr. Frank Damrosch, the godson of Franz Liszt and the head of music education for New York City’s public schools, was convinced that American musicians should not have to go abroad for their training. Damrosch and his financial backer, James Loeb, modestly planned for 100 students, but found that they had greatly underestimated the demand for high-quality musical training. The School quickly outgrew its original home at Fifth Avenue and 12th Street, and, in 1910, moved to new quarters on Claremont Avenue.
But the Institute is only half the story of what is now The Juilliard School; Augustus D. Juilliard and the Juilliard Graduate School are the other half. When Mr. Juilliard, a wealthy textile merchant, died in 1919, his will contained the largest single bequest for the advancement of music at that time. In 1924, the trustees of that bequest founded the Juilliard Graduate School to help worthy music students complete their education. In 1926, the Graduate School and the Institute of Musical Art merged as the Juilliard School of Music under one president, the distinguished Columbia University professor John Erskine, but with separate deans and identities. Damrosch continued as the Institute’s dean, and Ernest Hutcheson was appointed dean of the Graduate School. In 1937, Hutcheson succeeded Erskine as president of the combined institutions. (Juilliard’s Evening Division — originally the Extension Division — was begun in 1933, offering continuing education for adults.)

The Campus

A walk through Juilliard’s modern multi-story home in Lincoln Center gives a brief introduction to what a Juilliard education is all about. Practice rooms — 84 of them, plus 22 more in the residence hall — rehearsal rooms, classrooms, and studios signal the disciplined labors Juilliard students devote to their training. Four large concert and production spaces reflect the school’s commitment to public performance.
At nearly all hours of every day, the School is filled with activity. Students are using most of the 200-plus pianos available to them. In each of the 35 private teaching studios, instructors are helping students to refine a phrase, a gesture. Scenery and costume shops are producing materials for opera, dance, and drama presentations. Rehearsals and workshop productions unfold in 15 two-story studios. In the evenings, fully-staged productions open to the public move into the Juilliard Theater, seating almost 1,000 people, or the Drama Theater, seating about 200.
The most widely-known auditorium at Juilliard is Alice Tully Hall, acclaimed for its extraordinary acoustics and its 4,192-pipe organ, built by the Swiss firm of Theodor Kuhn. Alice Tully Hall is the site of concerts by students and professionals, soloists and ensembles. It is home to the Juilliard Orchestra, the Juilliard Symphony, and the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center.
The 278-seat Paul Recital Hall also plays an important role in the lives of Juilliard music students. Paul Hall is where most musicians present recitals during their training and where many master classes take place. Morse Hall, a smaller space with complete flexibility in seating configuration, is also used for recitals, master classes, meetings, and other events.
Juilliard’s Recording Department can provide students with recordings of their performances.
Students preparing for performances or classroom courses use the resources of the Lila Acheson Wallace Library. Around the library’s elegant two-story Peter Jay Sharp Reading Room, students consult some 60,000 music performance and study scores; 20,000 books on music, drama, dance, and the humanities; 15,000 LP, compact disc, cassette and reel tape recordings; and 700 commercial videotapes. The library’s state-of-the-art computer network provides access to JUILCAT, the School’s online public access catalog, as well as to a wide range of Internet resources.
The Peter Jay Sharp Special Collections Room houses the library’s distinguished collections of manuscript scores and rare printed editions. A fully-equipped media center includes 32 listening stations with compact disc players, turntables, and tape decks. Two seminar rooms include video viewing facilities and multimedia computers. Students performing in one of Juilliard’s large music ensembles use the complete collection of the standard repertoire in full scores and performing parts located in the School’s orchestral library.
