International Circle

Founded in 2015, the International Circle serves as the driving force behind the global outreach of the Reina Sofía School of Music. It brings together visionary leaders and sponsors dedicated to music, culture, and the arts, united by a strong commitment to nurturing the musical talent of the future. Through their support, the members of the Circle not only contribute to the educational development of our young artists but also act as cultural ambassadors in their home countries, building networks that amplify our mission on a global scale. 

Thanks to their generosity, our institution provides exceptional musical training through a completely tuition-free model, ensuring that talent, not financial circumstances, is the sole criterion for accessing our cutting-edge education.
