About Igor
Igor Yakovenko is a professional pianist, composer and experienced piano teacher with a background spanning classical music, jazz, improvisation and contemporary music.
He studied Historical and Modern Instrumental Performance at the Moscow Conservatory and later completed his Master’s Degree in Piano Performance and Music Education at Maimonides Academy, where he studied improvisation under renowned jazz pianist and educator Igor Bril.
Combining a strong classical foundation with extensive experience in jazz and improvisation, Igor helps students not only develop technique and learn repertoire, but also understand how music works — developing musicality, harmonic thinking, aural skills and confidence at the instrument.
Alongside teaching, Igor maintains an active career as a pianist and composer. He has released numerous albums, written the opera “Guilty” for the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Theatre, and performed at major concert halls and contemporary art venues. He was also selected for the Snape Maltings residency in the UK.
This professional experience shapes his approach to teaching: lessons are grounded in strong technique while encouraging curiosity, creativity and an individual relationship with music.

Every student comes to the piano with different interests, experience and goals, so I tailor each lesson individually. My approach combines a strong classical foundation with jazz, improvisation and contemporary music.
Alongside technique and repertoire, we can work on sight-reading, ear training, harmony, rhythm, improvisation, composition and music theory — helping you understand how music works rather than simply learning which notes to play.
I teach children, teenagers and adults, from complete beginners to advanced musicians. Lessons can focus on classical repertoire, jazz, contemporary music, improvisation or composition, depending on your interests and goals.
Lessons are available at my studio in Bow / Mile End (E3), at students’ homes in nearby East London, and online.

I’m a violinist, and I’ve had the pleasure of playing chamber music with Igor. What I value most in a musician is depth and a sense of scale — someone who resists the temptation of immediate effect and instead chooses to truly immerse themselves in the music.
That takes great skill, taste, and inner freedom. And Igor has all of these qualities.
I remember our time making music together with great pleasure. I also believe that having the opportunity to learn from a musician like Igor is a real gift.It was incredibly inspiring to get an insight into Igor’s creative process as a composer and experience his approach to making music. Sharing my own sketch with him and hearing him play it was especially meaningful and gave me so much confidence as someone just beginning to create my own music. The lessons were very clear and well structured, and I know I’ll keep coming back to the materials whenever I need new ideas and inspiration. Thank you, Igor!
I had always dreamed of learning how to compose music and truly understand how it works. Studying with Igor opened up the world of composition for me and completely changed the way I approach music. Through my lessons with Igor, I had written my first piece and was preparing my own concert. I’m incredibly grateful to Igor for helping me take my musical development to the next level.
After ten years away from the piano, Igor helped me find my way back into the world of classical music. We worked on Rachmaninoff and Brahms, and through our lessons I discovered new layers of meaning and expression in music I thought I already knew.
