A new model for advancing music: SFCM, Askonas Holt, Opus 3 Artists, and Pentatone Music
Chaired by SFCM President David Stull, the ߲ݴý Francisco Conservatory of Music (SFCM) heads a unique alliance of leading, independently operated music organizations that share the belief that music is essential to life and education is the best promise for tomorrow.
The alliance consists of SFCM, artist management companies and , and recording label .
Together, their work creates opportunities for students, artists, presenters, and audiences to develop and experience new ideas, expand the recording and distribution of important works, and shape pathways to a sustainable future for the industry and the world.
The alliance acts as a research and development engine for the music industry by enabling professional musicians to take artistic risks on the Conservatory’s campus that might not otherwise be afforded, all while offering students an up-close experience of what it is like to develop and refine inventive forms of performance.
With physical presences in Amsterdam, Berlin, London, New York, and ߲ݴý Francisco, alliance members have access to one another’s expertise in teaching, artist management, touring, presenting, recording, distribution, fundraising, marketing, communication, human resources, and information technology—and to world-class performance halls, recording studios, and accommodations.
We believe that music is essential to life and education is the best promise for tomorrow."
