I'm Francesco, a graduate alumnus at the Manhattan School of Music, a concert jazz pianist, and a music educator. With eight years of teaching experience, I am currently the jazz department tutor at MSM and received my certification in classroom teaching in Italy.
In-person or online, I'm here to offer you my experience as an educator, composer, and touring musician. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced player, I'll make sure to help you meet your musical goal—in music theory or piano performance—through a personalized program. I take a methodical goal-based approach to teaching piano and theory and am particularly knowledgeable about harmony, piano arranging, and vocalist accompaniment. And you'll have the opportunity to record your lesson.

Perfect! Francesco has the gift of effective pedagogy and engaging musicianship. As a fellow piano teacher, it was a joy to learn with him. Francesco explains the fundamental theory of improvisation with clarity and ease. Moreover, he encourages students to put theory into practice right away. If you're looking to discover the joys of music (in both playing and understanding the mechanics), his classes are a fantastic way to do so!
