About Me

I am a guitarist, composer, and teacher. I have studied in Italy, the Netherlands and Germany and I have been working in the last years as a performer, teacher and internationally as a composer.

Education

Born and raised in Italy and now living in Berlin, Alessandro started to play the guitar when he was 7 and then entered the Conservatory of his town at the age of 11 studying with Flavio Cucchi.
After receiving his B.A. and having followed the summer guitar courses at the Accademia Chigiana in Siena under the guidance of Oscar Ghiglia (student of Segovia), he moved to the Netherlands to study with the renowned classical guitarist Carlo Marchione. He graduated with the highest marks, writing a thesis on how to perform Bach on the classical guitar.
He also attended masterclasses from the most renowned classical guitarists and composers such as Leo Brouwer, Carlo Domeniconi, Ricardo Gallen, Eliot Fisk, David Tanenbaum, the cembalo player Robert Hill, and the Viola da Gamba player Paolo Pandolfo. During this time he also gained performing experience touring with a chamber music group and participating in guitar competitions.

Experience / Qualifications

In Berlin, he started working as a solo performer for numerous opera productions (Theater Vorpommern in Greifswald and Stralsund; Bode Museum in Berlin; Trentino Music Festival) and various ensemble projects.

With a strong desire to find his own way of expressing himself through music and guided by his interest in a wide range of musical genres, he started experimenting with different ways of composing music: this period of research led to the creation of his Ensemble which released two EPs, Drifting (2017) and Nebula (2018) and the full-length Album "Sum".

Since then he created music for various commissions (including Ameritz Music-Great Britain, Ostereo -Great Britain, Movement Head Quarters Ballet Company -USA, Choreographer Shannon Maynor -Berlin, Believe Music-France).

With more than 10 years of teaching experience and successful students, Alessandro has been mentoring students from all over the world.

Drums, as with bass guitar are the backbone of any good song, and the foundation upon which the music is built. Despite not being as famous as lead vocals or lead guitar. Drums in my opinion is much more fun, at all levels of performance.

I will teach you how to play the drums, how to fit the style to the genre and we will learn by practice by breaking down the famous classics, and explain what part drums played to make these classics so good.

We will use my electronic drumset, which is not as good as the real thing but is definitely good for starters. There are ways you can practice at home without a drumset as well. And we can expand later and rent a studio room, where I can jam with you on the guitar even!

ENGLISH-SPEAKING PIANO TUTOR

I teach adults of all levels!

I often mentor people who are just starting out, helping them develop their interest in the instrument and play the music they love.

A lot of students come in with anxiety about how good or fast they're going to be able to learn. I work to build a respectful, supportive environment where you feel comfortable developing and learning at your own pace.

For intermediate and advanced students, I teach with a particular focus on fundamental technique through études, and developing musicality.

Oftentimes, as hobbyists, we have holes from our early studies that prevent us from developing later in life. My aim is to help correct that. You should leave with renewed confidence to tackle pieces that have intimidated or eluded you in the past.

I hope to teach you soon!

I am an experienced and enthusiastic guitar tutor from Leeds, England, living in Berlin. I have a bachelor’s degree in jazz guitar from Leeds College of Music although I also play and teach rock, pop, funk, folk, and indie music.

In lessons, I aim to get students to play something they know as soon as possible in order to get excited about progress early on. We balance this with paying attention to proper technique and having one eye on the theory behind what we are playing to broaden your understanding of how music works.

I am actively engaged in playing within the music scene and have a real excitement for all types of music, whether it’s learning your first chords on guitar or working on improvisation or music theory. We'll go at the right pace for you and achieve your goals together.

I have experience teaching all ages and abilities of students, having taught in primary and secondary schools as well as private tuition for adults. From complete beginners to preparing a student for their college auditions.

Lessons are tailored to suit the needs of the student, in order to have lessons that push you to learn to the best of your ability whilst still being fun and musical.

Let me teach you to write your own songs, learn any song by ear, create your own style or begin your journey into the world of music and playing the piano. My method is based on learning music from listening, perception and creativity. My classes are extremely practical and adaptable to the needs and interests of the student, from piano applied to songwriting or the understanding of musical language and harmony, to the preparation of different repertoires and the writing of your own songs.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Are you stuck? I can help!

In our composition lessons, we’ll both learn how to get more from basic elements, like pitch and rhythm, and also the things we can do to help make a composition more poetic. We can work on how to get more music from fewer ideas to create a consistent musical language, and also explore the idea of opposites in your compositions, blending and smearing contrasting elements to add depth and complexity to your work.

Through the analysis of great music, the composition of miniatures, and feedback on your current projects, you’ll both increase your technical fluency and simultaneously learn to love and develop your unique voice. This class is for any level of composer, whether you're a beginner or an experienced composer seeking to enhance your creative skills. Don't wait any longer :)
