  • Conservatorium of Music State Heritage Listed
    25 January 2011 CONSERVATORIUM OF MUSIC STATE HERITAGE LISTED Macquarie Street’s landmark building where stars like trumpeter James Morrison, members of bands such as Silverchair and Thirsty Merc, and even a Wiggle, developed their musical talents, has been given the State’s highest level of heritage protection. The Sydney’s Conservatorium of Music has today been placed on the State Heritage Register by the Minister for Planning, Tony Kelly. The Conservatorium was commissioned by Governor Macquarie and designed by noted colonial architect Francis Greenway and is a very rare example of Greenway’s architecture in the Old Colonial Gothic style. “The building is of heritage significance at a state level due to its 20th century history as the premium NSW music education agency and through its association with numerous important figures in the music field,” Mr Kelly said. These include: James Morrison – trumpeter; Rai Thistlethwayte - lead singer of Thirsty Merc; Kim Moyes - band member of The Presets, The Dissociatives and Silverchair; Julian Hamilton - band member of The Presets, The Dissociatives and Silverchair; Sam Moran - member of The Wiggles; Henri Verbrugghen - the Conservatorium’s founding Director and Belgian conductor; Eugene Goossens - Conductor and composer; and Iva Davies - frontman of band Icehouse. Mr Kelly said the Conservatorium was originally constructed as a stable for Government House but was converted for use as a Conservatorium in 1915. “It is a rare and intact example of an early colonial stable building in the centre of Sydney and met six of the seven Heritage Council criteria for listing on the State Heritage Register including historical values, associations with people or groups of people, aesthetic values, community esteem, research potential and rarity,” Mr Kelly said.

    Pru Montin at Screen SongsHubs LA Nick Cave and Warren Ellis Photo: Courtney McAllister Photo: Daniel Boud Rochelle Pitt at Share the Spirit Photo: Jacinta Keefe 2019 - 2020 YEAR IN REVIEW Kimbra Photo: Nick Demarais 1 Message from the Chief Executive, Dean Ormston Bujari gamarruwa and kia ora I’d like to begin my message by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which I am writing from today, the Gadigal people of the Eora nation and pay my respects to Elders past and present. This financial year will be remembered by all of us for natural disasters including catastrophic bushfires and floods across Australia, a volcanic eruption in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, and now COVID-19. The pain and suffering experienced by so many of our members and licensees over the past 12 months has been far-reaching and terrible. Musicians and the music industry are always amongst the first to lend a hand to support, lift spirits and raise funds to rebuild community. The COVID-19 context has turned the tables and musicians have needed to put a call out for the support of governments and others. Individual and collective resilience has been tested. We’ve all had to cope with dramatic and unpredictable disruption and change. We’ve had to adapt quickly. Our priority over the past 12 months has been to support both our 108,000+ members and 114,000+ licensees. As the bushfires devastated enormous areas of Australia, and then COVID-19 spread across the globe, we moved quickly to provide direct support and advocate to government the plight of those that live and work in the original gig economy.
