Carlos Gomes State Institute
Carlos Gomes State Institute, Music conservatory in Nazaré, Belém, Brazil
The Carlos Gomes State Institute is a music school in Belém's Nazaré neighborhood, housed in a substantial building on Gentil Bittencourt Avenue. It offers instruction at various levels, from introductory classes to professional certification programs.
The school was established in 1895 as the Conservatory of Music of Pará and renamed in 1897 to honor Brazilian composer Carlos Gomes. This change reflected growing recognition of one of the region's most important musical figures.
Named after Carlos Gomes, Pará's most famous composer, the school hosts regular student performances and concerts that reflect the region's classical music heritage. These events blend European traditions with Brazilian musical roots.
The school is conveniently located on Gentil Bittencourt Avenue and is accessible during class hours. Check ahead about public performances or student concerts that might be open to visitors.
The school is among Brazil's oldest public music institutions, with only the Imperial Conservatory in Rio de Janeiro predating it. This long history makes it an important witness to music education in the region for nearly 150 years.
