No

It was originally the "Amsterdams Conservatorium", but in the 70's of last
century ir fused with the conservatory of Haarlem. The New sschool was
called Sweelinck Conservatory. But some 15 years ago this school formed a
unity with the Hilversums Conservatorium -- genuine music school, where you
could be educated from the very first beginnings up till the very highest --
and from that moment the school was called Conservatorium from Amsterdam. In
the location in Hilversum you still have some MA educations, for instance if
you want to conduct wind bands, and of course the lower-then-professional
educations (also for ballet) are still there.

Hope this helps, David.
