About Geo

My journey with the piano began with the instrument that was always present in my family home. From those early years, music became a central part of my life and led me on a path of continuous exploration, study, and discovery.

My musical studies continued in Italy, where I studied classical piano at the Conservatory Orazio Vecchi in Modena. After discovering jazz, I expanded my focus to jazz piano, composition, arranging, harmony, and improvisation, continuing my studies at the Conservatory of Parma.

After attending a jazz workshop at Siena Jazz, I was awarded a scholarship to study at The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York City. There, I expanded my musical perspective and immersed myself in the diverse and creative environment of the New York jazz scene.

Since graduating, I have performed in a wide variety of settings as a pianist, composer, and recording artist while continuing to teach piano. With over fifteen years of teaching experience, teaching has become an important part of my musical life, allowing me to share my knowledge and experience with students while helping them discover both the joy of making music and the depth and complexity that makes music such a rewarding journey.

Today, as a musician, educator, and father of young children, I value creating a supportive environment where students can grow at their own pace and develop confidence, curiosity, and a deeper appreciation for music.
