Russian Music Academy of Barcelona
Music training with international certification
The Academy
The Russian Academy of Music in Barcelona was established in 2013 as a private and independent educational institution. It does not depend on any ministry or public body, either Spanish or Russian.
What distinguishes it is not its ownership but its method: individualised teaching, teaching staff trained in the Eastern European musical tradition, and lessons in Russian, English, Spanish or Catalan tailored to each student's needs.
Since 2019, it has been an official Trinity College London examination centre, allowing its students to obtain an international qualification without leaving Barcelona.
What can one study at the Academy?
At the Academy you can study piano, violin, violoncello, guitar, flute, classical singing and contemporary singing. Theoretical subjects are also taught: music theory and composition.

Official Trinity College London Centre
In 2019, the Russian Academy of Music in Barcelona became an official examination centre for Trinity College London. This recognition has made the Academy a unique musical institution in Catalonia and one of the few in Spain where students can receive musical training in Russian and sit international examinations.
The training comprises nine levels, ranging from Initial to Grade 8. Students who pass the examinations obtain an international certificate from Trinity College London, equivalent to a professional-grade diploma.
Unapproved
Recognised directly in Europe and in numerous countries without additional paperwork.
Support for university admission

Alternative to the music school
A structured curriculum distinct from the Spanish conservatoire system, with individualised pacing.
For the little ones
Before starting an instrument, there is a stage where children learn to listen. Domisolca is our art education school for children aged 2 to 6, where music, rhythm, visual arts and theatre are taught together.
It is the first stage of musical training: when children arrive at the Academy at age six, they have already developed their ear, sense of rhythm and capacity for self-expression.
