Erato School of Music and Performing Arts was established in 2008 by Hong Minh Nguyen after his 20 years of music education in Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory and Goldsmith, University of London. Since then, Erato has elevated private music & arts education in Vietnam to a new level and created a trend for many other private music and arts schools to follow. At the beginning of 2019, Erato School has expanded into 4 flagship schools in Hochiminh City and Hanoi, known for providing lessons in music (classical & contemporary), Performing Arts, Fine Arts and others related subjects. Erato is the exclusive representative of RSL Awards (UK) and Harmony Road (USA) in Vietnam and also an examination center of ABRSM. Erato’s partners are most reputable institutions and schools in Vietnam such as Fulbright, RISS, EMASI, UNIS, ISHCMC, VAS Aurora International Preschool of the Arts, Vinschool, Yola etc. as courses provider and developer. Today, Erato has become a culture hub hosting concerts, masterclasses, workshops, exhibitions, attracting international and Vietnamese artists and diverse audiences. As stated in Forbes Magazine - “Erato is in essence creating its own market where there has been non-consumption. Minh wants to start an ecosystem for the newly wealthy to embark on a more wholesome, sustainable life. Because today's students will be tomorrow's leaders, instilling in them this broader education will have deep implications for how they will govern and the culture and opportunities they will create for a broader slice of the population in the generation following them”.
