About Us
Bringing music to life—right in your home. Iovanne Music Academy connects passionate, highly qualified teachers with students of all ages across Kirkland and beyond. We teach piano, voice, guitar, ukulele, bass, drums, strings, and winds—all in the comfort and convenience of your own space.
Your music, your way. Whether you're drawn to classical, jazz, pop, or composition, our teachers craft lessons around your goals and learning style. We build well-rounded musicians who read, compose, perform, and—most importantly—love what they're playing. Music should be challenging, rewarding, and shared with others.
Our Philosophy
Four pillars that guide every lesson, every practice session, every performance
Love
Igniting Passion for Music
Our highest priority is to share and impart a true love for music. We want our students to want to play, to discover and to grow in music.
Technique
Building Excellence
Mastering fundamentals unlocks freedom. We develop the technical skills that transform musical ideas into confident, expressive performance.
Expression
Finding Your Voice
Music is more than reciting pieces—it's a fundamental form of human expression. We encourage students to play with music and find their own voice.
Performance
Sharing Your Music
Music comes alive when shared. We celebrate growth through recitals and performances, building confidence that extends far beyond the stage.
