Two Unique Alliances
A new model for a music conservatory.
We are the only organization that combines world-class teaching, learning, and creative expression with a leading artist-management team and a GRAMMY-winning record label. This affords students access to peerless experiences in music education.
These growing partnerships with Opus 3 and Pentatone are dedicated to supporting the finest artists of our time and cultivating the emerging talent of tomorrow. This is just the beginning.
David Stull President

OPUS 3 ARTISTS
We changed global music education in 2020 by acquiring management company Opus 3 Artists, home to over 250 top musicians and ensembles like Yo-Yo Ma, Emanuel Ax, Branford Marsalis, Stephanie Blythe, and Chanticleer. Masterclasses, recording sessions, and side-by-sides with members of the Opus 3 roster are only the beginning of our work together to invent the future of performances.

PENTATONE MUSIC
In 2022, SFCM changed the game again by acquiring GRAMMY-winning record label Pentatone, giving them a foothold on the West Coast to record and release music. This growing partnership with the two-time Label of the Year winner will give students firsthand experience with the recording and distribution process of a legendary label.
