Two graduates of the Ramón Corrales Music Conservatory in Ronda have received the Extraordinary Award for Professional Music Education from the Junta de Andalucía for the 2025-26 academic year, according to Diario Ronda.
The regional government published the definitive resolution on Wednesday, naming Beatriz Siles Morales and Antonio Marín López as recipients. Both students completed their professional music studies at the Ronda center in June and achieved maximum qualifications in entrance exams for the higher grade of music through the single district modality.
Siles and Marín are now in their first year at the Manuel Castillo Superior Music Conservatory of Seville, studying clarinet and composition respectively. During their time in Ronda, they participated in an equivalency and schedule coordination program between the conservatory and IES Pérez de Guzmán, which allows students to obtain equivalency for certain subjects in Compulsory Secondary Education or Baccalaureate stages.
The Ronda music center has offered professional grade education since the 2022-23 academic year, enabling students from Ronda and the surrounding Serranía region to complete their musical training without traveling to Málaga.
