ABOUT

I was 10 years old when my parents first enrolled me in a music course. A couple of years later, I had my first major revelation and ran to my mom saying, "Mom, I don't just want to play the piano, I want to study the organ!"

In 2007, I was admitted to the Organ and Organ Composition class at the Conservatory of Matera.

Since then, my life changed: I met people who shaped my professional career. First and foremost, my Professor Francesco Bongiorno who inspired me and stood by me.

I completed my studies with honors and special mention.

This marked the beginning of receiving compliments and words of esteem for the sensation my music evoked in the audience of my concerts, and I understood that I must continue to dream.

 

To dream big. And to improve along the way.

In 2020, I once again challenged myself and moved to Stuttgart for a two-year advanced study program as a Concert Organist at the prestigious Hochschule für Musik und darstellende Kunst in Stuttgart, attending the Konzertexamen class under Prof. Jürgen Essl.

Thanks to courses with Michael Radulescu, Hismo Hintsala, Olivier Latry, Enrico Baiano, and Josè Gonzales Uriòl, I developed an eclectic taste and a conscious execution of every kind of repertoire.

My studies in Stuttgart offered me the opportunity to perform concerts in wonderful locations, travel to new places, and meet personalities who have accompanied and inspired me.

 

The interpretive taste of the pieces I choose for concerts began to please my listeners.

In 2022, I recorded a CD titled "Perlen des Barock" with trumpeter Thomas Engelhart on the beautiful Metzler organ (2005) of St. Franziskus church in Stuttgart Obertürkheim.

As my studies were coming to an end, I put my self out there again: I moved to Switzerland to work full-time in a church, taking on new responsibilities, tasks, and musical challenges.

 

Currently, I am in Zug, a charming village in Switzerland, and working in Europe as a concert organist.

I currently hold the position of organist and church musician at the Katholische Kirchengemeinde Zug and Unterägeri (CH)

I am growing.

Today, I look back with pride and gratitude because I have performed in numerous international festivals. Also, I debuted as a soloist with the Baden-Baden Philharmonie and SKV Reutlingen, and I work actively as a continuo player on the harpsichord for numerous ensembles.

 

I am becoming a versatile personality, able to adapt to different musical genres and to empathize immediately with the circumstances I find myself in.

 

I am humble; I want the music to speak for me.

I want the feelings I convey to guide every conversation I have.

I believe there's magic in choosing music that truly frame a specific moment or event. 

And no matter what, I will always find a way to listen to every story and work my magic with my music.
