Since I was a child I had a great passion for music and actively participated in theonly musical activities that were available in the environment where I grew up: the choir of my parish and the school choir.
In my middle school, during the only hour of music scheduled in the curriculum, I had the great fortune to meet an exceptional teacher, Gianluigi Trovesi, who later became an internationally renowned clarinetist and jazz musician. Thanks to him and his encouragement, I started studying piano with PierluigiForcella, with whom I prepared the midterm exam at the Giuseppe Verdi Conservatory in Milan.
After continuing my piano studies with the pianist Laura Paoli and studying harmony with Sergio Gianzini, I moved to Munich where I continued my piano studies under the guidance of Katharina Gerbitz and Margit Urban, graduating in 2001 under the guidance of Margit Urban by the Istituto Musicale “Gaetano Donizetti” in Bergamo, my hometown.
