Before starting lessons, I had very little, if any, foundation in improvisation. I discovered Alessandro through a live stream, and right then I said, “Holy sh**, I want to play like that!” hearing his version of Falling Up by Allen Hinds. So I started studying everything related to improvisation on...

Before I started studying with Alessandro, I had several gaps I wanted to fill, and my biggest struggle was definitely improvisation. I had major difficulties creating melodic phrases, managing timing and rhythmic figures, as well as on a technical level with the cleanliness of my legato, all topics that we...

From day one, the connection was instant. The experience has been exceptional, helping me...
