My teaching adapts to students' needs after listening to at least one lesson. I love baroque music even if I'm not specialized in it. The elements to be considered together with the student are: age, talent, pieces performed and goals to be pursued. I indicatively follow the method of Italian conservatories. I teach the pieces required for competitions for aspiring professional violinists in symphony orchestras.
My Italian Conservatory/University : Istituto Superiore di Studi Musicali (I studied there and I'm teaching there)
The orchestra where I played for 13 years and with which I recorded numerous CDs and toured all over the worlds : Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia
