About Us

Established in 1990, the Music Institute of Long Island (MILI) is a classical music school staffed by exceptional instructors from many of the most prestigious conservatories and graduate music schools in the United States and Europe. One of Long Island’s foremost musical academies, its instrumental programs include classes in violin, viola, cello, double bass, guitar, piano, jazz piano, flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, voice and tuba.  Through both the Traditional, Suzuki, and the Associated Boards of the Royal Schools of Music methods of music instruction, our faculty engage both in drawing in the beginning musician and enriching the performances of the conservatory-bound virtuoso. Graduates of the Music Institute have gone on to colleges and conservatories such as Juilliard, Eastman School of Music, Manhattan School of Music, Mannes School, Columbia, Cornell, Yale, Harvard, Amherst and University of Michigan. Students participate in All-National, All-Eastern, All-State and outside youth orchestras during their time here, as well as routinely receiving high scores on NYSSMA and Royal Academy Music Festivals.
