The Académie de musique du Québec (French pronunciation: [akademi də myzik dy kebɛk], Quebec Music Academy) is a nonprofit association based in Montreal, Canada, founded in 1868.
It was built by order of Queen Victoria in 1870 and brought together the most renowned musicians of Quebec.
It also conducts exams and awards diplomas and certificates in all disciplines of music education.
In 2011 the Prix d'Europe contest celebrated its 100th anniversary and each year offers the winner a $25,000 scholarship, awarded by the Ministry of Culture, Communications and Status of Women of Quebec.
The Prix d'Europe competition aims to encourage young musicians to hone their craft and pursue their musical studies outside of Quebec.
