Dr. Hoch's Konservatorium – Musikakademie is a music academy and art school located in Frankfurt, Germany. It was founded on 22 September 1878 by the donation of Joseph Hoch, who gave the Conservatory one million German gold marks in his testament. Instrumental to the foundation, prosperity and success of the conservatory was its director Joachim Raff who did most of the work including setting the entire curriculum and hiring all its faculty. It has played an important role in the history of music in Frankfurt. Clara Schumann taught piano, as one of the distinguished teachers in the late 19th century, gaining international renown for the conservatory. In the 1890s, about 25% of the students came from other countries: 46 were from England and 23 from the United States.
