About Us
Iris Music School was established in 2020 and is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of Chinese music talents in Sydney, Australia. The founder, Iris, is the first international student from the Chinese traditional music department at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. With a background in music education and strong professional expertise, Iris has developed a unique curriculum tailored for students aged 5-14, integrating theories from pedagogy and psychology, and offering bilingual instruction in both Chinese and English.
The studio also organises a youth ensemble, fostering cultural exchange and connection between Chinese and Western music while encouraging students to engage in composition and performance. By incorporating contemporary musical elements, Iris Music Studio provides a comprehensive music education for its students. To date, Iris Pipa Studio has provided educational and training opportunities for many students. Its affiliated ensemble has participated in numerous concerts and commercial performances, including contributing to the soundtrack of Amazon's film Five Blind Dates.
Iris Li is a groundbreaking musician and Pipa soloist, as well as the founder of the Iris Pipa Studio and the leader of the Amazonite Fusion Music Ensemble, a youth ensemble that features the Pipa while combining Eastern and Western musical styles to promote an innovative "East-West fusion" that inspires a fresh era of aesthetic expression.
As the first Chinese music student of Australia's top music institution, Iris was admitted to the Sydney Conservatorium of Music in 2010 with outstanding performance, even though they did not have a Chinese music program at that time. She helped initiate the Chinese music program at the institution.
After graduation, Iris taught music at several prestigious schools in Sydney, including Sydney Technical High School. She has also been interviewed by China Central Television International regarding the development of Chinese music overseas.
