Music Lessons : Theory | Instrumental Technique | Interplay | Guitar | Bass | Voice | Piano | Rhythm
From 42.87 £ /h
I am a professional musician and composer with twenty years of study and concert experience. I have a licentiate in theory and solfeggio and I graduated in jazz guitar at the Cesare Pollini Conservatory in Padua. I offer adults and children individual lessons aimed at achieving independence through the creation of their own study method and inclusion in the local musical community also thanks to the possibility of playing - even live - within a jam managed by me . For several years I have been teaching theory, harmony, arrangement, singing, instrumental technique applied to guitar, bass and piano. I have experience playing funky, blues, rock, surf, jungle, jazz, rap, hiphop, pop, metal, samba, dance, classical and popular music.
“I attended an ensemble music course managed by Federico for about a year. I found myself very well in general, with me in the course there were people of very different levels but Federico always managed very well to adapt the parts to each person's level of experience and to give very stimulating musical theory ideas also in the analysis of apparently simple songs. I also had the opportunity to have some private guitar lessons where I was able to get some very useful information on the study of the neck.”
Maria Silvia Morsino
“During Federico's course I experimented with an approach to different musical styles and genres such as rock, blues, jazz, with a wide margin of experimentation.
Together with the other members of the group we also formed bonds by developing harmony and melody by singing intervals on the piano and a series of very useful exercises. I consider it an educational experience for those who want to get involved and have a passion for music, having the opportunity to practice different structures together with others and thus also honing their ear. However, Federico is always present and available for advice, questions and questions outside of lessons. For me it is an experience worth having, I would add a multi-ethnic cultural basin where everyone is given the opportunity to get involved and grow artistically.”
Veronica Casale
“I felt very comfortable. Innovative teaching method that lays the foundations for playing rock and blues and then, if you want, moving on to jazz improvisation. Teacher always available with clear explanations. Very interactive lessons. Highly recommended!”
Nicolò Santin
“Prepared and kind, in his laboratories he creates a stimulating and informal environment where anyone can feel at ease with him. It is helping me create a study method to make me more independent in my personal research.”

About Me
I am a kind and friendly music teacher, I encourage students to play and study together, and to express themself pianissimo or fortissimo (working on touch and dynamics).
