Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium

Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium (English: The Royal Danish Academy of Music), commonly abbreviated DKDM, is the oldest professional institution of musical education in Denmark as well as the largest, with approximately 400 students. Established in 1867 as "Kjøbenhavns Musikkonservatorium" by Niels Wilhelm Gade - who was also the first rector -, J.P.E. Hartmann and Holger Paulli on the basis of a testamentary gift from the jeweler P. W. Moldenhauer, and with inspiration from the Leipzig Conservatory (founded 1843) and a conservatory founded by Giuseppe Sibonis in Copenhagen in 1827. Renamed Det Kongelige Danske Musikkonservatorium in 1902. Originally located on H.C. Andersens Boulevard, it relocated into the former headquarters of the Danish national radio broadcasting corporation, Radiohuset, Copenhagen in August 2008 and took over the the concert hall under the name Konservatoriets Koncertsal, Copenhagen. If a studio on this location is credited, it is likely the DKDM Studio
