Northwest Music Academy:
Develop the mind, through music.
Founded in 2018, Northwest Music Academy is the joint project of Luke Neilson and Leila Noonan.
The academy was formed on the belief that the disciplined study of music offers profound intellectual, artistic, and personal rewards.
We offer thoughtful, in-depth music instruction for students who are ready to take their studies seriously. Our teaching emphasizes focus, discipline, and curiosity - helping students build not just musical skills, but a deeper understanding of the art form.

Have questions about practice, progress, or starting lessons?
Why Isn’t My Child Improving in Music Lessons? How much should a child practice? What does good practicing look like?
Many parents have similar questions when their child begins music lessons - how much practice is needed, how progress should look, and what helps students succeed long-term.
We’ve written a series of short guides explaining how musical learning typically works and what families can expect along the way.
