Old Naples Music School Roots Deep in Loreto Convent
In Naples the oldest music school began circa 1535 when Francesco, a poor artisan, sheltered and educated orphans at his home near Mercato. Citizens aided him, and Spanish priest Gloyann da Tappla directed the effort, securing a permanent endowment. The original school moved near Sta Maria de Loreto and became the Conservatorio in 1466.
