Can someone start composing at the age of 30 if he's found he has raw talent in music (distinguishing sounds, etc) and really enjoys "composing sounds in his head, but never had any formal training?

As humiliating as it may sound, I don't know how to ask for it at a conservatorium (or is there like a different school for it???) or how should I start...

You are incredible giving this time and attention to a random question popped up at a QnA !!!

Basically, I want to put into music words , sounds and compositions I have in my head (if that makes sense to you)... Learning an instrument excites me, but my goal is composing...

How is Christmas time in France? I hear the whole capital is at its most beautiful this time of the year... /s
