Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

One of the most memorable experiences I’ve had was performing in a beautiful historic church in northern Italy during a special commemorative concert. The acoustics were incredible, especially for organ and piano repertoire, and the atmosphere was very intense and focused. The audience was completely silent throughout the performance, and afterwards there was a long moment of stillness before the applause started—it felt like everyone had really connected with the music.
As for venues, I would say some of the most inspiring places I’ve worked are churches with strong architectural character and a long musical tradition. One that stands out in particular is a church where I regularly perform both as organist and pianist for liturgical services and concerts. Playing there always feels special because of the combination of the instrument, the space, and the emotional significance of the events—especially weddings and memorial services.


What's your favourite type of event?

I enjoy performing in a variety of settings, from concerts to liturgical services and private events, but I would say weddings are among my favourites. They are very special occasions where music plays an important emotional role, and it’s rewarding to accompany such meaningful moments throughout the ceremony.

I also really appreciate memorial services, even though they are more solemn, because music can offer comfort and create a sense of reflection and dignity. Concert performances are equally important to me, especially in venues with good acoustics where I can explore a wider repertoire, from classical to jazz and contemporary pieces.

Each type of event has its own atmosphere, and I find it very fulfilling to adapt my playing to suit the context and connect with the audience in different ways.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

I started my musical career through formal classical training, studying piano and organ at the conservatory, where I built a solid foundation in performance and interpretation. During those years, I also began gaining practical experience by playing for school events, local concerts, and church services.
From there, I naturally moved into professional engagements, starting with liturgical services such as weddings, funerals, and Sunday masses, where I worked as both organist and pianist. These early experiences helped me develop flexibility, sensitivity to different settings, and the ability to accompany singers and ensembles.
Over time, my work expanded into a wider range of events, including concerts, private ceremonies, and collaborations with vocalists and instrumentalists.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

I have been mainly influenced by the great classical composers such as Johann Sebastian Bach, Frédéric Chopin, and Ludwig van Beethoven. Bach in particular has had a huge impact on my organ playing, especially in terms of structure, counterpoint, and clarity of musical lines. Chopin has deeply influenced my piano interpretation, especially in expressive phrasing and rubato.
Alongside the classical tradition, I am also inspired by jazz pianists such as Bill Evans and Keith Jarrett, whose harmonic language and improvisational approach have broadened the way I think about musical expression and colour.
Choosing a single favourite artist is difficult, but Bach remains at the core of my musical identity because of the depth, balance, and timelessness of his work.


What types of events do you provide music for?

I provide live music for weddings, religious ceremonies, funerals, private events, and corporate functions, offering a tailored musical program for each occasion.


Can you customize the music repertoire for our event?

Yes, all performances are fully customizable. I work closely with clients to select pieces that match the atmosphere, style, and significance of the event.


Do you provide your own instruments and equipment?

Yes, I can provide a portable digital piano when needed, along with all necessary equipment for performances in venues without a piano or organ.

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

We normally arrive around 1.5 to 2 hours before the performance to set up and prepare properly. This allows time to check the instrument, adjust sound if needed (especially for digital piano setups), and coordinate with the venue, celebrant, or other musicians.
For weddings and ceremonies, we usually arrive earlier if there is an organ involved or if there are multiple locations within the venue, so everything runs smoothly without stress on the day.
Performance times depend on the type of event. A wedding ceremony typically lasts between 30 and 90 minutes of music, including pre-ceremony, entrance, signing, and exit pieces. For funerals, performances are usually more focused and shorter, often around 20 to 40 minutes depending on the ceremony structure. For concerts or private events, sets can vary from 45 minutes to 2 hours, often divided into multiple parts if needed.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, we are happy to perform outdoors as well, as long as a few basic conditions are met to ensure a good performance. In particular, it is important to have a flat and stable surface, adequate protection from sun or rain, and, if needed, a nearby power supply for the digital piano or amplification.

When these conditions are in place, outdoor performances can be very atmospheric and create a truly special setting for the event.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

Clients definitely have a say in what is performed. We usually offer a wide repertoire to choose from, which can be adapted depending on the type of event and the desired atmosphere.

We are also happy to prepare specific pieces on request, especially for key moments such as entrances, signing, or exits, usually within a limited number agreed in advance.

Alternatively, clients can fully rely on us to select the musical program.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients often describe my performances as elegant, emotional, and highly refined. They particularly appreciate my ability to create the right atmosphere for each moment, adapting the repertoire with sensitivity and professionalism.
Many also highlight the quality of the sound and the expressiveness of the interpretation, as well as my discretion and reliability during important events such as weddings and memorial ceremonies.
