The Guildhall School of Music and Drama (GSMD) is a Music and Dramatic Arts School which was founded in 1880 in the City Of London , UK . The first Guildhall School was housed in an old warehouse in Aldermanbury , but these premises soon proved too small. A new purpose-built building in John Carpenter Street was designed by City Architect Sir Horace Jones and opened in December 1886 . Before 1935 it was known as the Guildhall School of Music. Since 1977 it has been next to the Barbican Arts Centre in the Barbican Complex built in the 1960s – 70s . The GSMD offers Undergraduate and Postgraduate Degrees , is a partner (with Trinity College of Music) in a public examining body, and has a junior department.
