AN ARTISTIC IDENTITY
Inspirational life-affirming music-making
is at the heart of who we are
and what we do.
Founded in 2003, YST has quickly established a reputation as Asia's most exciting international conservatory and one of the world's most distinctive.
GIVING MUSIC GREATER RESONANCE
Creating distinctive resonances
within, through and beyond music.
Our curriculum is driven by two key aims: nurturing artistic identity as a driver and compass for excellence, and engaging the broader ecosystem to give music greater resonance.
CITY OF THE ARTS
A city uniquely placed to offer
a powerful contemporary Asian voice.
A young, modern city rooted in a deep multicultural heritage and open to global influences, Singapore is home to a vibrant arts and culture scene.
