Violinist with advanced training (three degrees in violin and two in chamber music) from the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, the Accademia Perosi, the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana, the Conservatory of Rome, and around the world.

I offer structured, clear, and results-oriented online lessons. My lessons combine technical rigor, expressive development, and practical application to the repertoire—ideal for those who want to progress rapidly, pass exams, or prepare for competitions and orchestral auditions.

Solid technique: posture, intonation, bow control, scales/studies targeted to solve concrete problems.

Repertoire and interpretation: from Baroque to Romantic and contemporary music; study of phrase, style, and performance practices.

Targeted preparation for exams and auditions: selection of pieces, memorization support, study of orchestral excerpts, and audition simulations.

Practical methodology: each lesson includes a technical warm-up, work on a piece, and practice assignments with clear objectives; recordings can be sent/commented on, and feedback is provided between lessons.

Students seeking technical solidity and measurable progress.
