Trumpeter Herb Alpert has donated $15 million to the California Institute Of Arts’ School Of Music, just months after donating $30 million to a nearby university.

The A+M label founder will be honoured for his generous monetary gift - the school will now be renamed the Herb Alpert School Of Music.

In November 2007, Alpert handed over $30 million to pay for a new music school at the University Of California, Los Angeles via his Herb Alpert Foundation.
