    The Jerusalem Academy of Music and, founded in 1958 as the Rubin Academy of Music, is located on the Givat Ram campus of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. In 1965, Hassia Levy-Agron, a pioneer of dance in Israel, established the school’s dance department. Today the school has 160 staff members, and over 600 students, and includes a Faculty of the Performing Arts, a Faculty of Composition, Conducting and Music Education, and a Faculty of Dance, Movement and Movement Notation. The academy runs an annual two-week program called the International Summer Institute for Strings. Also, adjacent to the academy’s main building, is The Academy High School which was founded in the late 1960s, and offers a curriculum that combines general studies with specialization in music and dance.
