The world famous Abbey Road Studios have commenced their ground breaking education initiative with Australia’s first Abbey Road Institute campus, which launched in Melbourne’s Southbank in August this year.
Australian students with a passion for audio, music production and the music business, now have the opportunity to study under the worlds most recognised and prestigious recording studio banner, with access to a high-end commercial grade infrastructure as well as techniques and insights behind some of the greatest music productions in history.
Spanning over 80 years, the globally recognised Abbey Road Studios have been home to countless landmark recordings and pioneering advances in recording technology, encompassing celebrated works by many of the world’s most famous recording artists including The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Kanye West, Elton John, Frank Ocean, Elbow, Lady Gaga, Adele and more recently M.I.A, Ed Sheeran and Iggy Azalea.
The Melbourne campus is now the first to have opened in the southern hemisphere. With the London institute housed in the legendary north London studio complex, additional locations in Paris and Berlin have also launched with further campuses in the planning stage for 2016.
The full-time Music Production and Sound Engineering program is taught over 46 weeks by experienced and current music industry experts. Producers and label executives work alongside qualified lecturers, including guest lectures from renowned Australian and international engineers and producers.
Australian CEO Paul Ledingham, a qualified audio engineer with 25 years experience in audio and creative media education, said of the new initiative: “This is an unprecedented initiative from Abbey Road, the world’s most recognisable recording industry success story. We will now have the ability to bring the biggest names, brightest minds and most promising talent together for a world-class educational experience that is wholly designed to meet industry needs for Australian students.”
