Currently, he is pursuing a Master's degree in Piano Performance at LUCA School of Arts in Belgium, with the renowned pianist Sylvia Thereza as his teacher.

He has been awarded in national and international competitions, such as the VII Sardoal Young Talent Award (2nd Prize - ex-aequo in the Piano Solo category; 2nd Prize and Best Portuguese Duo in the Piano Duo category), the Prof. Dichler-Competition 2022 in Vienna (2nd Prize - ex aequo in the Piano Duo category), the I National Piano Competition of the Villa-Lobos Music School (Honorable Mention) in Rio de Janeiro, and the XXVI Souza Lima Piano Competition (Honorable Mention) in São Paulo.

His classes are intended for anyone who wants to start learning music theory and piano or those who already have basic or advanced knowledge. From Classical to Popular music, his teaching method adapts to the goals and individual desires of the student. During the classes, music theory is taught either concurrently or separately from practice, and the repertoire to be played is chosen collaboratively with the student.

Felipe has years of experience as a concert pianist and teacher in academies and music schools. He seeks the most suitable approach for each student, respecting their learning pace, helping overcome difficulties, and exploring their strengths, always encouraging progress.

About Me

About Me
🎹 Pianist & Artistic Researcher Bridging Tradition and Innovation

🌍 Hello! I’m Felipe, a Brazilian pianist based in Belgium. I recently graduated with a Master's in Piano Performance from LUCA School of Arts (Lemmensinstituut) in Leuven, where I studied under Sylvia Thereza. My musical path blends deep classical training with a curiosity for historical improvisation, contemporary creation, and collaborative expression.

🎓 Education

Bachelor’s Degree in Music from Hochschule für Musik Karlsruhe (Germany)

Master’s Degree in Piano Performance from LUCA School of Arts, Leuven (Belgium)

Ongoing research in historical improvisation and performance practice, particularly in Beethoven’s music

🎵 Performance Highlights
I’ve had the honor of performing for and learning from internationally acclaimed artists such as Nikolai Lugansky, Lang Lang, Oleg Marshev, Makoto Ueno, and Peter Lang, experiences that have shaped my musical identity. My recent performance of Beethoven’s Second Piano Concerto with the Cluster Philharmonie in Belgium—part of a benefit concert supporting flood victims in Brazil—reflects my belief in the power of music to create meaningful change.

I’ve performed in prestigious venues in Brazil and Europe, and my artistic journey includes both traditional repertoire and collaborative projects that cross stylistic boundaries. One example is my work with Brazilian singer Antonia Medeiros on the composition and arrangement of Ao Teu Lado, a song that highlights my versatility as a performer and composer.

I’ve also premiered contemporary works such as Porturasil by José Carlos Sousa, a piece dedicated to my former teacher Manuel Araújo, showcasing my commitment to honoring tradition while embracing new artistic frontiers.

"The pianism of Felipe transcends the technical and stylistic aspects of interpretation with a rare sensitivity, resulting in an enchanting sound and the construction of genuinely poetic soundscapes."
— Claudio Dauelsberg

📚 Artistic Research
My recent research explores how historical improvisation can enrich the modern interpretation of Classical repertoire. Using sources like Czerny’s School of Practical Composition and historical performance treatises, I have developed a personal practice of improvising Eingänge and cadenzas—especially within Beethoven’s sonatas—bridging past and present through informed spontaneity.

👨‍🏫 Teaching Experience
I offer piano lessons tailored to each student’s level and goals, combining technical development with creative exploration. I strive to help students find their own musical voice, encouraging curiosity, stylistic awareness, and freedom at the keyboard.

🎓 Teaching Philosophy
My approach balances precision and imagination. Whether working on classical repertoire or guiding students through improvisation, I aim to create a learning environment that supports deep listening, expressive freedom, and a sense of artistic purpose.

📧 Let’s Connect
If you’re looking for lessons, artistic collaboration, or are simply curious about my work, I’d love to hear from you. I believe in music as a tool for connection, transformation, and joy—and I look forward to sharing that with others.

I have always been passionate about music, I play three instruments, and I recently finished my piano studies at the Royal Conservatory of Brussels in the class of Piet Kuijken. I have always found that the end goal of music was sharing, and that's why I orient myself strongly towards everything that is done in groups: chamber music, orchestra, but also teaching, via which I can also share my passion.
My course is for everyone: do you want to start from scratch? No problem, I also give lessons in music theory and musical culture which will make a perfect complement to make you a complete musician.
Have you already had lessons at the academy but want a more personalized or just a different approach? I offer methodical monitoring for each student and I adapt my course to all profiles. Do you want to prepare for an exam (academy or conservatory entrance)? I become your personal coach and invest myself personally in your success.
My course is aimed at students who want to learn technique and repertoire methodically as well as at those who want to learn for fun or for the purpose of learning a specific piece.

Students of all ages and levels can contact me to follow private piano lessons live in Antwerp, Beerzel or online through the camera (Zoom or Skype).
As a pianist and teacher, I have years of teaching experience at private and public schools throughout Croatia.
My main music education and training I got in Zagreb (Croatia) and Vienna (Austria). In 2020 I graduated in the discipline of the piano as 'Master in music' at the ‘Academy of Music’ in Zagreb.

I am familiar with performing the classical repertoire as well as modern 20th and 21st-century music. In 2020 I had been selected as a pianist to represent the composition of Belgian composer Gillis Sacré at a composition competition in Vienna.
In 2016 I took part in a euphony project and performed on a concert tour in Slovenia, Hungary, Austria and Croatia.

Later I further developed myself on numerous piano and chamber music masterclasses with pedagogues Ruben Dalibaltayan, Vera Vaidman, Andrea Padova, Ratko Delorko, Đuro Tikvica among others.

Between 2019 and 2022 I was connected as a professor at the ‘Ivan Matetić Ronjgov’ music school at the department on the island of Rab in Croatia.

I offer piano lessons for beginners or experienced pianists (intermediate-advanced level)
Together we will address all facets of piano playing: touch, rhythmic accuracy, musicality, harmony... giving an important place to harmonic listening. We will study pieces from the classical repertoire, but also jazz, song, folk, pop.... We will work on the independence of both hands by taking crossroads such as clapping or improvisation: guaranteed pleasure ;)
Lessons can take place at my home or at the student's home, as long as the student lives in a place easily accessible by transport... A session lasts 50 to 55 minutes
If you have any questions regarding the terms or method used, do not hesitate to contact me!

Are you willing to learn how to play the piano? In this class, you can learn how to play this incredible instrument, as well as develop music theory knowledge such as reading scores, basic harmony, and rhythm. You will also learn how to develop your own musical ideas and find a personal way to express them!

Students of all ages can contact me to follow private lessons live in Brussels or Antwerp or online (via Zoom). I am a classical/jazz-trained pianist and composer who graduated "magna cum laude" with a Master's degree in Composition at the Royale Conservatoire of Antwerp. As a pianist and music teacher, I have several years of experience in private and public schools in Italy and I'm now teaching at the Royale Conservatoire of Antwerp. I am familiar with the classical and jazz repertoire as well as with 20th and 21st-century music. I'm passionate about introducing this beautiful and exciting field of art and its related knowledge.

If you don't have any music experience or if you already know music and want to develop or study a particular argument, my classes focus on the construction of a personalized study trajectory and methods based on the level, interests, and expectations of the student! The most important thing for me is to keep creativity and interest always stimulated for you to develop or continue to grow your love for music!

My method is based on a freer and less academic approach than that of music theory for those who wish to develop their musical ear without prior classical knowledge (Although we will do a little bit of it anyway but in a simplified way). You will discover that it is not necessarily necessary or obligatory to know how to read a score to play music. A lot of professional musicians (Paul McCartney for example) do not know how to read notes!

I will help you get familiar with harmony and rhythm. We will learn how to compose simple and then more complex melodies and chords in all their various forms with the right hand. And we will also see how to accompany with the left hand. We will do all this from a piece of your choice (whether classical or modern that we will play in a simple way and then enrich it step by step!

During individual sessions, we will learn to understand musical notation, develop our hearing, understand our temperament, and, most importantly, learn to play pieces you've always wanted to learn! Plus, with my help, we'll discover new ones. Each of my students receives an individual program to unlock their musical abilities.

During piano lessons, we will make music, improve our technical skills, develop our hearing, memory, and artistry, and, most importantly, make music! They say we can learn quickly if we truly enjoy the process!
