Giovanni Longo

We had a lovely evening thanks to Giovanni. Great pianist!! Thanks for making my husband birthday very special!!

Giovanni Longo has been my vocal coach and opera musical director since 2017. He is a top notch musician and language coach. He has a strong understanding of the vocal mechanism and richly supports his performers when he accompanies. I have grown exponentially under his instruction. He has especially assisted my phrasing and language. He is an accomplished piano teacher for students of all ages and also works professionally in sacred music.

As a professional soprano with instrumental background I have been coached professionally by Giovanni and learned a great deal about musicianship, the Italian and French languages, various classical and operatic repertoire styles, and musical collaboration. He is extremely instinctual and knowledgeable about singing and piano, and has always helped me hear music we have worked on together with fresh ears, enhanced technique, and newfound command. He has been my primary singing coach and collaborative pianist for the past 5 years, and has helped me sing on respected stages, prepare for operatic roles, and win national singing competitions. I am lucky to have found him; I consider him one of the best and most talented musicians I have ever met. I recommend him highly!

I have been taking piano lessons with Giovanni for 5 years now and he has been so kind and patient with me throughout the entire process. He is extremely knowledgeable, loves teaching and has a great sense of humor. I have never once felt judged by him. If you are looking for someone to transform you as a pianist, he is the right person!

Giovanni is an incredible vocal coach and piano teacher! I’ve been working with him for about 2 1/2 years and I don’t plan on ever changing teachers. He has coached me and been my pianist for numerous concerts including at Carnegie Hall. He has truly helped to shape me as a musician. Thank you Giovanni!!
