==History==
=== Early years: 1905–1946 ===
[[File:Picture of Frank Damrosch.jpg|thumb|left|upright|[[Frank Damrosch]], founder of the Institute of Musical Art, commonly referred to as the "Damrosch School"{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|page=22}}]]

In 1905, the Institute of Musical Art (IMA), Juilliard's predecessor institution, was founded by [[Frank Damrosch]], a German-American conductor and godson of [[Franz Liszt]], on the premise that the United States did not have a premier music school and too many students were going to Europe to study music.<ref name=Rice>{{cite journal |last1=Rice |first1=Edwin |title=A Tribute to Frank Damrosch (June 22, 1859 – October 22, 1937) |journal=[[The Musical Quarterly]]|date=April 1939 |volume=25 |issue=2 |pages=128–134 |publisher=Oxford University Press}}</ref> Chartered by the [[Board of Regents of the University of the State of New York]], the institute became one of first endowed music schools in the US, with significant funding provided by philanthropist and banker [[James Loeb]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Loeb Classical Library: About James Loeb, Founder |url=https://www.hup.harvard.edu/features/loeb/founder.html |website=Harvard University Press |access-date=January 26, 2023}}</ref>{{efn|During the first decade of the 20th century, there were over forty [[Music school|conservatories]] in the United States. Unlike in Europe, these schools were privately funded, often relied on tuition or donations, and did not receive funding from the government. In the 1850s and 1860s, [[George Peabody]] had provided significant funding and endowment for the [[Peabody Institute]] (Peabody Conservatory of Music) in Baltimore. This funding included an initial gift of $300,000 and over $1,000,000 donated over twelve years. In 1905, [[James Loeb]] provided the Institute of Musical Art with an endowment of $500,000, the largest single, one-time endowment gift for a music school until that time.<ref>{{cite thesis|last=Gandre|first=James|title=And Then There Were Seven: An Historical Case Study of The Seven Independent American Conservatories of the Music that Survived the Twentieth Century|type=PhD dissertation|date=November 2001|publisher=[[University of Nebraska–Lincoln]]|url=https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/dissertations/AAI3028657/|page=26}}</ref>}}

Damrosch and Loeb's mission was to establish a musical institution with high standards of teaching and learning that would incorporate a unified pedagogy and develop a "true musical culture among all classes".{{efn|Damrosch visited several European conservatories to learn about their pedagogy and administration and observed that many lacked discipline or unified instruction. Damrosch wanted to form a school that trained musicians in the technicalities of their instruments and provided a comprehensive musical education with mandatory courses.<ref name=Gottlieb>{{cite journal|last=Gottlieb|first=Jane|title=The Juilliard School Library and Its Special Collections|journal= Notes|date=September 1999|volume=56|issue=1|page=12|doi=10.2307/900470|jstor=900470}}</ref>}} Accordingly, the school would rely on its endowment to ensure the quality of instruction was independent of students' financial status.{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=7–29}}

[[File:Institute of Musical Art, Claremont Ave. & 122nd St. LCCN97506440.tif|right|thumb|Institute of Musical Art at 120 [[Claremont Avenue]] in Manhattan]]

The Institute of Musical Art opened in the former Lenox Mansion, [[Fifth Avenue]] and 12th Street, on October 11, 1905. When the school opened, most teachers were European; however, only Americans were allowed to study at the institute.{{efn|Members of the original faculty included notable figures such as members of the internationally known [[Kneisel Quartet]], [[Sigismund Stojowski]], [[Etelka Gerster]], [[George Henschel|Georg Henschel]], [[Georges Barrère]], [[Gaston Dethier]] and [[Percy Goetschius]]. The school offered courses in voice culture, ear training, sight-singing, chorus, stringed instruments, organ, theory and composition, orchestral instruments, languages (French, German, Italian), and pedagogy. Walter Damrosch conducted the orchestra and chorus and taught sight-singing, ear training, and pedagogy courses.<ref name=Rice />{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=25–26, 80}}}} Although orchestras were exclusively male, women made up most of the student population. The school had 467 students in the first year, but the enrollment soon doubled in size over the following years.{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=29–57, 80}} Five years after its inception, the institute moved to 120 [[Claremont Avenue]] in the [[Morningside Heights]] neighborhood of Manhattan onto a property purchased from [[Bloomingdale Insane Asylum]] near the [[Columbia University]] campus.<ref>{{Cite web|url = http://morningsideheights.org/historic-district/historical-significance|title = Historical Significance|access-date = October 21, 2014|website = morningsideheights.org|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140222060520/http://morningsideheights.org/historic-district/historical-significance|archive-date = February 22, 2014|url-status = dead|df = mdy-all}}</ref>

In 1919, a wealthy textile merchant named [[Augustus D. Juilliard]] died and left a vast sum of money for the advancement of music in his will, which set up the Juilliard Musical Foundation (JMF) a year later as one of its primary beneficiaries.<ref>{{cite news |title=Gives $5,000,000 to Advance Music; Will of A.

The school only offered fellowships to select students. However, it did not have a charter until 1930 and was not officially a graduate school.

After much discussion, the Juilliard School of Music was eventually created in 1926 through a merger of the Institute and the Graduate School. The JGS moved from E 52nd Street to 130 Claremont Avenue next to the IMA in 1931.<ref>{{cite web |title=Rachmaninoff Performs at Opening of Claremont Avenue Building (1931); Opera Premieres Chabrier's "The Reluctant King" (1976) |url=http://journal.juilliard.edu/journal/rachmaninoff-performs-opening-claremont-avenue-building-1931-opera-premieres-chabriers |website=Juilliard Journal |date=November 14, 2012 |access-date=January 26, 2023}}</ref> The two schools had the same board of directors and president but maintained their distinct identities.<ref>{{cite web|last=Dahmus Farah|first=Jeni|title=Time Capsule from the Juilliard Archives: The Claremont Avenue Campus|url=https://www.juilliard.edu/news/146336/time-capsule-juilliard-archives|website=Juilliard Journal|date=April 30, 2020|access-date=January 26, 2023}}</ref> [[Columbia University]] Professor [[John Erskine (educator)|John Erskine]] became the first president of the two institutions (1928–1937).<ref>{{cite web |title=The Core Curriculum, Faculty Profiles: John Erskine |url=https://www.college.columbia.edu/core/oasis/profiles/erskine.php |website=Columbia College |access-date=January 26, 2023}}</ref> [[Frank Damrosch]] continued as the institute's dean, and the Australian pianist and composer [[Ernest Hutcheson]] was appointed dean of the Graduate School.

=== Expansion and growth: 1946–1990 ===
Juilliard's third president, [[William Schuman]], an American composer and the first [[Pulitzer Prize for Music]] winner, led the school from 1945 to 1961 and brought about several significant changes to raise the school's academic standards. In 1946, Schuman completely consolidated the Institute of Musical Art and the Juilliard Graduate School to form a single institution and created the [[Juilliard String Quartet]] as the school's main quartet-in-residence.<ref>{{cite web |last1=May |first1=Thomas |title=The Juilliard String Quartet Remains at the Nexus of Continuity and Change as it Celebrates Its 75th Anniversary |url=https://stringsmagazine.com/juilliard-string-quartet-celebrates-75th-anniversary/ |website=Strings Magazine |date=December 3, 2021 |access-date=January 27, 2023}}</ref>{{efn|William Schuman, a graduate from [[Teachers College, Columbia University|Columbia's Teachers College]] (BS 1935, MA 1937), attended the Juilliard Summer School in 1932, 1933 and 1936. While attending Juilliard Summer School, he developed a personal dislike for traditional music theory and ear training curricula, finding little value in [[counterpoint]] and [[Ear training|dictation]]. When Schuman became president, he brought several new teachers to the school, including violinist [[Ivan Galamian]], pianist [[Beveridge Webster]], cellist [[Leonard Rose]], and conductor [[Jean Paul Morel|Jean Morel]].{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=142–158}}}} During his tenure, Schuman cut down enrollment by more than half, eliminated the Juilliard Summer School and Music Education Program,{{efn|The school had about 1,400 students in 1945, which decreased to 600 students at the end of Schuman's tenure in 1961.

Schuman discontinued the Theory Department and initiated a new curriculum called the ''Literature and Materials of Music'' (L&M), which began in 1947–1948, and was based on the assumption that musical theory education "should transfer theoretical knowledge into practical performance." Designed for composers to teach, the more practical-orientated curriculum would provide an overview of the "literature of music". L&M was a reaction against more formal theory and ear training, and as a result did not have a formal structure and allowed for more flexibility.{{efn|The general mandate was "to give the student an awareness of the dynamic nature of the materials of music". The quality and degree of each student's education in harmony, music history, or ear training depended on how each composer-teacher decided to interpret this mandate. In the first couple of years, students from all musical backgrounds would study together and obtain a general survey of music materials and literature. Later years would focus on the literature specific to one's musical instrument or area of study.<ref>{{cite journal|last=Schuman|first=William|author-link=William Schuman|title=On Teaching the Literature and Materials of Music |journal=[[The Musical Quarterly]]|date=April 1948 |volume=34 |issue=2 |pages=155–168|publisher=Oxford University Press|doi=10.1093/mq/XXXIV.2.155 |jstor=739302}}</ref>}}

Schuman established the school's Dance Department under [[Martha Hill]]'s direction in 1951, intending that students in the program would receive an education in [[dance]], [[choreography]], and music.<ref name="BriefHistory" />{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=205–206}} The department, later renamed the Dance Division, offered performance opportunities through the Juilliard Dance Theatre (1954–1958) and later the Juilliard Dance Ensemble (founded {{Circa|1960}}), which often collaborated with the Juilliard Orchestra. For many years, the Juilliard Dance Department shared facilities with the [[School of American Ballet]].{{sfn|Olmstead|1999|pages=194–215}}

===Academic programs===

The school offers courses in dance, drama, and music. All Bachelor's and master's degree programs require credits from [[Liberal arts education|Liberal Arts]] courses, which include [[seminar]] classes on writing, literature, history, culture, gender, philosophy, environment, and modern languages.<ref>{{cite web |title=Liberal Arts |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/school/academics/liberal-arts |website=Juilliard School, the |access-date=April 18, 2023}}</ref>

The Dance Division was established in 1951 by William Schuman with Martha Hill as its director. It offers a [[Bachelor of Fine Arts]] or a Diploma.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.juilliard.edu/degrees-programs/dance |title=Dance |publisher=The Juilliard School |access-date=September 7, 2016}}</ref> Areas of study include ballet and modern and contemporary dance, with courses ranging from dance technique and performance to dance studies. Since its inception, the dance program has had a strong emphasis not only on performance but also on choreography and collaboration.<ref>{{cite web |title=Dance Division |url=https://catalog.juilliard.edu/content.php?catoid=55&navoid=6292 |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 14, 2023}}</ref>

The Drama Division was established in 1968 by the actor [[John Houseman]] and [[Michel Saint-Denis]]. Its acting programs offer a Bachelor of Fine Arts, a Diploma and, beginning in Fall 2012, a [[Master of Fine Arts]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.juilliard.edu/degrees-programs/drama |title=Drama |publisher=The Juilliard School |access-date=September 7, 2016}}</ref> Until 2006, when James Houghton became director of the Drama Division, there was a "cut system" that would remove up to one-third of the second-year class. The [[Lila Acheson Wallace]] American Playwrights Program, begun in 1993, offers one-year, tuition-free, graduate fellowships; selected students may be offered a second-year extension and receive an Artist Diploma. The [[Andrew W. Mellon]] Artist Diploma Program for Theatre Directors was a two-year graduate fellowship that began in 1995 (expanded to three years in 1997); this was discontinued in the fall of 2006.

The Music Division is the largest of the school's divisions. Available degrees are [[Bachelor of Music]] or Diploma, [[Master of Music]] or [[Graduate diploma|Graduate Diploma]], Artist Diploma and [[Doctor of Musical Arts]]. [[Academic major]]s are [[Brass instrument|brass]], collaborative piano, composition, [[guitar]], [[harp]], historical performance, [[jazz]] studies, orchestral [[conducting]], [[Organ (music)|organ]], [[Percussion instrument|percussion]], [[piano]], [[String (music)|strings]], [[Vocal music|voice]], and [[Woodwind instrument|woodwinds]]. The largest music department is Juilliard's string department,<ref>{{cite web |title=Violin |quote=The largest music department is Juilliard's string department. |website=Juilliard |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/music/instruments/strings/violin|access-date=January 16, 2023}}</ref> followed by the piano department.<ref>{{cite web |title=Piano |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/music/instruments/piano |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 16, 2023}}</ref> The collaborative piano, historical performance, and orchestral conducting programs are solely at the graduate level; the [[opera]] studies and music performance subprograms only offer Artist Diplomas. The Juilliard Vocal Arts department now incorporates the former Juilliard Opera Center.

The school's non-degree diploma programs are for specialized training to advance a performer's professional career. These include undergraduate and graduate programs in dance, drama, and music. Musicians and performers can also complete Artist Diploma programs in jazz studies, performance, opera, playwriting, and [[string quartet]] studies.<ref>{{cite web |title=Diploma Programs Statistics & Disclosure |url=https://www.juilliard.edu/school/about/diploma-programs-statistics-disclosure |website=Juilliard |access-date=January 13, 2022}}</ref>

===Pre-College Division===
The Pre-College Division teaches students enrolled in elementary, [[junior high]], and high school. The Pre-College Division is conducted every Saturday from September to May in the Juilliard Building at Lincoln Center.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.juilliard.edu/youth-adult-programs/juilliard-pre-college |title=Juilliard Pre-College |publisher=The Juilliard School |access-date=September 7, 2016}}</ref>

All students study [[solfège]] and [[music theory]] in addition to their primary instrument. Vocal majors must also study diction and performance. Similarly, pianists must study piano performance. String, brass and woodwind players, as well as percussionists, also participate in orchestra. The pre-college has two orchestras, the Pre-College Symphony (PCS) and the Pre-College Orchestra (PCO). Placement is by age and students may elect to study conducting, chorus, and chamber music.

The Pre-College Division began as the Preparatory Centers (later the Preparatory Division), part of the Institute of Musical Art since 1916. The Pre-College Division was established in 1969 with Katherine McC. Ellis as its first director. Olegna Fuschi served as director from 1975 to 1988. The Fuschi/Mennin partnership allowed the Pre-College Division to thrive, affording its graduates training at the highest artistic level (with many of the same teachers as the college division), as well as their own commencement ceremony and diplomas. In addition to Fuschi, directors of Juilliard's Pre-College Division have included composer Dr. [[Andrew Thomas (composer)|Andrew Thomas]]. The current director of the Pre-College Division is Yoheved Kaplinsky.

===Center for Innovation in the Arts===
The Center for Innovation in the Arts (CIA), formerly called the Music Technology Center, at the Juilliard School was created in 1993 to provide students with the opportunity to use [[Digital electronics|digital technology]] in the creation and performance of new music. Since then, the program has expanded to include a wide offering of classes such as, Introduction to [[Music technology|Music Technology]], [[Music Production]], [[Film scoring]], Computers In Performance and an Independent Study In Composition.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.juilliard.edu/school/academics/center-innovation-arts/center-innovation-arts-courses|title=Center for Innovation in the Arts |publisher=The Juilliard School |access-date=September 7, 2016}}</ref>

In 2009, the Music Technology Center moved to a new, state of the art facility that includes a mix and record suite and a digital "playroom" for composing and rehearsing with technology. Together with the Willson Theater, the Center for Innovation in the Arts is the home of interdisciplinary and electro-acoustic projects and performances at the Juilliard School.
