Dr. Jakob Bragg, Pianist / Composer / Educator
  

Dr. Jakob Bragg is a pianist, composer, and educator with over 17 years of experience in music education and performance across Australia and the UK. He holds a Doctor of Philosophy (Music) from the University of Huddersfield, a Master of Music from the University of Melbourne, and a Bachelor of Music from Griffith University’s Queensland Conservatorium.

Jakob has taught students of all ages and levels, from young beginners through to university and conservatoire entrants. He has successfully prepared students for AMEB, ABRSM, and Trinity examinations, as well as composition portfolios, auditions, and academic pathways. His teaching experience spans leading universities, including the University of Melbourne and the University of Huddersfield, as well as primary and secondary schools in both Australia and the UK.

As a composer and performer, Jakob’s music has been featured by ensembles and festivals across seventeen countries. He has collaborated with major organisations such as the London Philharmonic Orchestra, International Contemporary Ensemble (USA), Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra, ELISION Ensemble, Speak Percussion, Rubiks Collective, and Ensemble Offspring. He is an Associate Artist of the Australian Music Centre and has published academic and creative work internationally.

Jakob’s teaching is guided by mentorship, encouragement, and adaptability. He believes in tailoring lessons to each student’s individual needs and fostering creativity alongside technical development. Whether guiding beginners in their first steps at the piano, coaching students for exams, or introducing composition and improvisation, he creates a supportive and inspiring environment for learning. His broad musical background spans classical piano, improvisation, composition, contemporary music, film music, and popular styles, ensuring students can explore music in ways that excite and motivate them.

Many of Jakob’s students have gone on to become pianists, composers, songwriters, and improvisers, gaining entry into leading universities and conservatories. He brings to Melbourne Piano School not only his expertise as a teacher, but also his passion for cultivating diverse artistic voices and making music education an enriching experience for all.
