 This conservatory was suppressed in November 1743 and converted into an establishment of the archiepiscopal seminary.In 1806, with Napoleon Bonaparte's brother, Joseph, installed as the king of Naples in what would be a decade of French rule of the kingdom, monastic life in the kingdom was drastically reorganized and the three surviving monastery music schools were consolidated into a single building, the Church of San Sebastiano, not far from the modern conservatory.Finally, in 1826 that consolidated conservatory was moved to the present site.
