About
Ciao, I'm Davide! Learn clarinet and sax from an Italian jazz musician with 8+ years of gigging experience and a master's degree from Manhattan School of Music — fun, personalized lessons for all levels! I teach Bb clarinet, bass clarinet, alto and tenor sax, and baritone saxophone. I specialize in both jazz and classical music. I've been gigging across Europe and the US in the last 6 years, and I bring that stage experience into every lesson. I have performed in venues such as Dizzy's Club (Jazz at Lincoln Center), Concertgebouw theatre (Amsterdam), PAC New York, and many more. I’ve taught in two NYC public schools and currently teach at iSchool in Syosset. I’ve also been running my private studio for over a year. Whether you're aiming for conservatory auditions, building your improvisation chops, or just picking up the instrument for the first time, I’m here to help you grow with clarity, structure, and creativity. Here’s What a Lesson Might Look Like: -Warm-Up: Tone, articulation, breath work -Technique: Scales, harmony, rhythm, applied directly to your playing -Repertoire or Improvisation: From classical etudes to jazz solos, we’ll work on material that challenges and excites you -Feedback, goals for the week, and maybe a cool tune to check out I use interactive materials to make my lessons more engaging, such as play-alongs and musical drones. I’m always striving to provide the best learning experience possible. See you soon! =)

I took clarinet and Piano lessons with Davide and his kind and accessible approach made the experience extremely fun and enjoyable!! The lessons would fly by and I'd look forward to them each week. If you want to learn woodwinds you won't find someone more qualified or as good a communicator

If I could give ten stars, I would! Davide is an excellent instructor for my son, who is a serious 12 year old clarinetist. Davide has trained at the best conservatories and performs regularly internationally, yet he is a down to earth and inspiring tutor who encourages my son to be the best version of himself. Davide is strict but fun and his classes are challenging without being discouraging. He is punctual, gives thoughtful feedback, and takes extra time to work on areas that need improvement. My son looks forward to his lessons every week. Do not hesitate to contact Davide! You will not regret it.

Davide is an incredible musician and gifted teacher. He adapts his teaching style to your level and your prior musical experience, and is able to tailor his “curriculum” to your vision. His musicianship is immediately apparent in his finely tuned ear and his mastery of numerous instruments and genres. He prioritizes good technique while keeping lessons fun and engaging. I feel incredibly lucky to have found him as a teacher
