The Niccolò Piccinni Conservatory (Italian: Conservatorio Niccolò Piccinni) was founded by the violinist and music critic Giovanni Capaldi in 1925, with headquarters in Villa Bucciero, Bari, Italy.[1] It was the fourteenth music school to arise in Italy.[1] First created as a music-education high school ("Liceo Musicale"), in 1937 it was converted into a conservatory, and was named in honor of eighteenth-century Italian composer Niccolò Piccinni.[1]
