I started studying drums at the beginning of the 80's, by attending the Accademia Centro Studi Musicali in Bergamo. After 8 years, I became a teacher in the same academy, both in Bergamo and Treviglio (BG) locations. I've been a teacher in Treviglio since then, as senior teacher in charge of all drum courses at the music school.
Meanwhile, I improved my own studies with Maestro Walter Calloni for about three years. In 1992 I got my graduation in music theory at Conservatorio "G. Nicolini" in Piacenza.
Since 2003 I've been involved in the international course of YAMAHA music teaching method as a modern drums teacher.
I've attended many training seminars with: Peter Erskine, Elvin Jones, Tony Williams, Gregg Bissonette, Horacio Hernandez, Mike Mangini, Dennis Chambers, Marco Minnemann, Steve Smith, John Riley, Gavin Harrison.
I plan periodical drums clinics with internationally renowned musicians (Gavin Harrison, Horacio Hernadez, Marco Minnemann, JoJo Mayer) and many others Italian ones (C Meyer, W.Calloni, M. Furian, G. Di Tullio, E. Bandini…).
Since 2009 I've been part of Hudson Music Teacher Integration Program (TIP).
