[1] It is called Jesús Guridi due to the famous Basque musician who was born in Vitoria-Gasteiz (Vitoria, Spain, 25 September 1886 – Madrid, 7 April 1961).

That is why the city contains a large number of museums and a complete programming of cultural events during the whole year, organized by the public institutions and the private leadership.

Impulsed by the melodist Carmelo Bernaola, which was the conservatory director in 1985, the electroacoustic laboratory was designed by Eduardo Bautista and nowadays is directed by Alfonso García de la Torre.

Jesús Guridi music conservatory is located in the avenue of Vitoria-Gasteiz which is one of the most important transited spot of the city.

The building is surrounded by a park with gardens, bushes and trees that make it look more aesthetic which also helps to share the idea of being green that Vitoria-Gasteiz wants to spread.
