**Albert Francis Mando** (June 18, 1846 - October 10, 1912) was a musician in the United States. He was a composer, conductor, and educator.[1][2] The *[New York Age](/source/New_York_Age)* profiled him in 1907.

Mando was born June 18, 1846, in [Schaghticoke, New York](/source/Schaghticoke,_New_York), and lived there until he was nine years old when he moved with his family to [Lansingburgh](/source/Lansingburgh,_New_York). He came to New York in 1868 where he studied violin under [John Thomas Douglass](/source/John_Thomas_Douglass) and various other musical disciplines under various teachers. Over the years, he authored several musical compositions and conducted concerts in several large cities.[3][4]

In 1883 he founded the Mando Mozart Conservatory of Music located in New York City, a classical music school for African Americans.[5]
