INTERNATIONAL PIANO ACADEMY
The International Piano Academy was born with the aim of instilling music as an educational and human value in children and adult learners. Our academy specialises in teaching classical piano and music theory.
We have also designed the IPA International Music Workshops, which are master classes in a workshop format adapted for international schools. We share the vision of the International Baccalaureate Program (IB Programme), which believes that students are agents of their own learning.
Our internationally trained and internationally qualified faculty can teach piano from beginner to professional levels. We firmly believe that music plays a very important role in the cognitive development of the human being, and that is why for us, music is a way of life.
LESSONS SET UP
Individual piano, music theory or group lessons can be done in person or online (via Skype, FaceTime or Google Meet), since both methods offer very effective results. We offer the possibility of giving classes in Catalan, Spanish, and English.
International Piano Academy students have the opportunity to play in a formal concert at least once a year. We also offer parents the possibility of setting up an interview at the end of each academic term to talk about the student’s progress and comment on areas to improve. We are also in full contact with parents for any questions they may have between classes.
Currently, we are privileged to have students who take our classes from various parts of the world, such as London, Barcelona, Tokyo, México DC, Dubai, Chicago, New Delhi, and Lisbon, among other destinations.

FACULTY
Margalida Moll Salord is a classical pianist with more than ten years of experience in the world of teaching. She is the director of the International Piano Academy. One of her greatest passions is transmitting to students the importance of music education for motor and personal development. Her piano classes cover various aspects of piano teaching, such as technique, musicality, and body position, which are key elements for good musical development. Margalida also introduces students to music theory from the early stages. Margalida has a Master’s degree in piano performance with distinction and a Bachelor degree from the Royal College of Music in London, and prepares her students for the official exams of ABRSM and Trinity, as well as entrance exams to conservatories or universities. Margalida’s students have won top prizes in prestigious competitions such as the London Youth Piano Competition and the King’s Piano Competition organised by King’s College School in London. She also teaches masterclasses to students pursuing studies at colleges and conservatories. Her classes can be given in three languages: Catalan, Spanish, and English.
IPA INTERNATIONAL MUSIC WORKSHOPS
The International Music Workshops are master classes in workshop format adapted for international schools. We strongly believe that music can develop a student’s individuality and personality by allowing the student to be in charge of their own learning experience, improving their dexterity, listening skills, confidence, and competence in educational performance. Also, music can become a channel to enhance students’ self-confidence, creativity, and sense of achievement.
We have experience with the International Baccalaureate Program, GSCE and A-Level qualifications and can offer workshops in English, Spanish and Catalan, adapting the music workshops to different age groups and levels. Furthermore, we can create sessions that explore international examinations such as ABRSM and Trinity and help students who are preparing for an exam reach their full potential.
