I train young pianists or assist experienced pianists in their preparation

From 46.38 £ /h

Hello, I am Federico, a professional classical pianist, concert performer, and teacher. I am here to propose a high-level program designed to learn how to play the piano. My work is not improvised but is the result of decades of study with great international masters, both performers and educators. The lessons are aimed at students who are approaching the piano for the first time but are highly motivated and eager to dedicate themselves to the instrument, as well as advanced students who are preparing for concerts, competitions, and exams. All necessary materials will be provided by me, lesson by lesson. It will be necessary to have an instrument at home (even a digital one to start).

You need a webcam with a good microphone, or a good smartphone with good microphone.

About Me

I started studying the piano when I was 9 years old, and since then, it has always been my life. It has taken me around the world, allowed me to have unforgettable experiences, and introduced me to people I will never forget. I have dedicated a significant part of my life to piano study, competitions, masterclasses, and concerts. Now, it's time for me to share my experience by helping the new generations get into piano playing. There is less and less interest in classical music, and it is our duty to keep it alive more than ever. Like all beautiful things, it cannot be appreciated unless you know it, and like all beautiful things, you will only get closer to it with some effort. However, the satisfaction will be immense. Many of my students continue their studies at important music institutions, and some of them have already entered the professional world of concert performance.

Education

Federico began studying piano at the age of 9 and then graduated with honors from the Vincenzo Bellini music institute in Catania. He later attended the Academia Internacional de Musica "Aquiles delle Vigne" in Coimbra under the guidance of M. Aquiles delle Vigne, and simultaneously obtained a second-level academic diploma in musical disciplines from the institute in Catania. He continued his studies with M. Corrado Ratto and in 2016 he earned a Master of Arts in music pedagogy from the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana in the class of Anna Kravtchenko. He then attended the Master of Arts in music performance at the same Swiss institution.
He has won first prizes in dozens of national and international competitions, including the first prize at the Eliodoro Sollima competition in Enna, the first prize at the 18th edition of the international Gianluca Campochiaro competition, and numerous other prizes in national and international competitions. He attended masterclasses at the International Summer Academy Salzburg under the guidance of Aquiles delle Vigne and in 2008 was admitted as an effective participant in the international Musica Arvenzis masterclass held in Bratislava by Peter Cerman. He has also perfected his skills with Maestro Franco Scala and Leslie Howard. In 2017, he recorded a CD entitled "The Journey" for KSN Classical featuring music by Rachmaninoff, Debussy, Liszt, and Mussorgsky. He regularly performs concerts as a soloist and in chamber formations, and has played for important musical institutions, festivals, theaters, and associations, for RAI, the Steinway Society, for the Zandonai theater in Rovereto and the philharmonic hall, the Mozarteum in Salzburg, and the Garibaldi theater in Enna.
He is part of the piano duo FERDIS, in collaboration with M. Federico Distefano. The duo regularly performs concerts throughout Italy, always maintaining a project-oriented approach. The duo's instinct is to create musical innovations through a profound research into a repertoire that ranges from Baroque to contemporary. In February 2020, the Ferdis duo performed and recorded a rare transcription of "Primavera in Val di Sole" by R. Zandonai for four hands for the Zandonai study center.

Over the past 20 years, I have had the privilege of teaching students from diverse nationalities and backgrounds. I have worked with students from various schools, including local Hong Kong schools, Hong Kong International School, Kowloon Junior International School, and the French International School etc.

I am adaptable and capable of teaching students with different personalities, whether they are highly energetic or more reserved. My primary goal is to instill a passion for music in the next generation, helping students not only grow as musicians but also as confident performers.

I have guided many students to success in ABRSM exams, from Grade 1 to Grade 8, including the latest online exam format. My students consistently achieve excellent results, and feedback from past clients has been overwhelmingly positive, with many expressing how music has boosted their confidence and performance skills.

I tailor my lessons using a variety of books based on each student’s level and needs. Please feel free to contact me for more information or inquiries.

Wolof is the most spoken language in Senegal, Gambia where it has been enriched by the contributions of other dialects, Arabic and French, which remains the official language. It is experiencing a cultural expansion in the country and is also present in Gambia and Mauritania.

So to facilitate your integration into Senegalese society; it is essential to go through this language because it is the vernacular although there are several beautiful local Senegalese languages but Wolof remains the most used language. this is why I propose to teach the beauty of this language which is my specialty and my mother tongue, I also teach Senegalese and Gambian culture and civilization.

I also want to inform my learners that apart from online courses, I organize language visits and tours in Senegal; for those who wish to travel in order to practice and discover Senegal with special packages.

I teach online via Zoom, using software which allows you to see the exact keys I'm playing on my keyboard.

My teaching method is to focus on whatever type of music the student loves most, and to build from there. I believe that many people give up their dream of playing an instrument simply because they aren't inspired enough, so my goal is to instill a love for music, whatever that means personally for each individual student.

Everyone learns differently and has their own pace and rhythm. I have some students who like to have a regular weekly or biweekly lesson, and others who just get in touch once in a while when they have digested the previous lesson and feel ready to build on it. Whatever the case, I am very flexible and we can figure out what works best for you.

A bit about me:

Originally honing my skills on the British jazz scene and holding residencies in restaurants and bars around the country, I then went on to tour the world playing on cruise ships, hotels and festivals. I returned to London to complete my master's in jazz piano at the Guildhall School of Music, and during this time performed regularly at Ronnie Scotts, The Vortex and many other venues across the UK. I then spent two years in South America learning about salsa and Cuban music. I now mainly work as a transcriber, writing sheet music for all instruments including full Big Band scores. I have also worked extensively in musical theatre, most recently as musical director for 'Jersey Boys', and on the first US national tour of 'Summer: the Donna Summer Musical'. The video shown below is from my stint playing and directing 'After Midnight', a show set to the music of the Duke Ellington Big Band.
