SPECIALISED IN TEACHING CHILDREN
He has achieved the “Orff-Schulwerk” qualification in 2010 at Tor Vergata

Vigne) and he was always selected to perform in the final concerts. He has also
attended a harpsichord master-class by M°M. Bisceglie. During the years at the
Conservatory he has developed his own vast and technically complex musical
repertory. Starting from "The Well-Tempered Clavier" by Bach up to Gershwin's
Jazz; rising from the pillars which are Beethoven's music and Liszt music. This
repertoire requires considerable technical skills and an extraordinary passion
for music. He was invited to perform in piano and chamber music concerts, music

* During the year the School will organize “end of term concerts” (Christmas,
Spring and Summer); students will have the opportunity to perform in front of
parents and friends to show their achievements
* Le Petit Concert: It's a series of monthly concerts. No more than 6 students

audience. A good training in preparation of exams or music competition. And a
good way for parents to check on their children's progress.
