The Academy of Ancient Music was the name of a group of elite amateur and professional musicians that flourished in London from 1726 until 1802. The group's raison d'être was to study the music of the past through the performance of it. In 1973 a new Academy of Ancient Music was established, also focussed on performing the music of the past.[1]
