Glière Music College is the second oldest Ukrainian music conservatory established in the late 19th century in Kyiv. In the early 20th century it was split into two music schools, Glière Music College and Kyiv Conservatory (now Kyiv Academy of Music). Over the past century, many world-famous musicians have graduated from this school, such as Vladimir Horowitz and Mélovin.

In 2008, the R. M. Glière Kyiv State Music University was reorganised into the R. M. Glière Kyiv Institute of Music.^[1]

In 2018, the institution celebrated its 150th anniversary at the state level,^[2] which became an occasion for another renaming. Since 2018 – Reinhold Glier Kyiv Municipal Academy of Music.^[3][4]
