My name is Giuseppe and I'm an Italian musician living in Graz.

Before moving, I worked as a guitar and music theory teacher at a music school, as I have a degree in electric guitar.

During my studies and my work as a player and teacher, I studied and played different types of music, from blues, rock, to the most extreme metal.

I am available for online and private lessons, but also as a session man in the studio or for concerts.

During the lessons we will deepen the different aspects and techniques of the instrument and combine practice and theory.

I am a professional guitarist, composer and music educator based in Graz, Austria. I completed my Bachelor's degree in Jazz Guitar at the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz in 2023, followed by a Master's degree in Jazz Guitar with honors in June 2026.

Alongside my artistic work, I am currently studying Instrumental and Vocal Pedagogy (IGP) in Jazz Guitar at the same university, with additional focuses on arrangement and ensemble direction.

With over ten years of teaching experience, I have worked with children, teenagers and adults of all ages and ability levels—from complete beginners to advanced musicians and students preparing for university entrance examinations.

Every student is unique. For this reason, each lesson is individually adapted to your musical interests, goals, experience and preferred learning pace.

- What We Can Work on Together

1. Understanding the Guitar and Fretboard

Develop a clear understanding of your instrument and learn how notes, chords, scales and musical patterns are organized across the fretboard. This will help you learn songs more efficiently and express your own musical ideas with greater freedom.

2. Song Accompaniment

Develop your skills as a rhythm guitarist through chords, strumming patterns, fingerstyle techniques and accompaniment approaches from a variety of musical styles.

3. Improvisation

Improvisation is an important part of jazz, but it can also be applied to rock, blues, funk, pop and many other styles. We will work with practical tools such as arpeggios, triads, scales, phrasing, ear training and harmonic concepts, always connecting them directly to real music.

4. Rhythm and Timing

Develop a stronger sense of pulse, groove and musical timing. A solid rhythmic foundation is essential for every musician, whether you are playing alone, accompanying singers or performing with a band.

5. Harmony, Modern Music Theory and Composition

Explore how music is constructed and learn to understand chord progressions, melodies, scales, song forms and harmonic relationships. Students who are interested in composing can also develop their own pieces and musical ideas.

6. Guitar Technique

We can work systematically on different technical areas, including alternate picking, economy picking, sweep picking, hybrid picking, legato, chord transitions, articulation and coordination between both hands.

Technique is always approached as a tool for musical expression rather than as an isolated exercise.

7. Repertoire

Learn songs, compositions and solos in the styles that inspire you, whether that is jazz, rock, pop, blues, funk, metal or another musical direction.

Your favorite music can become the foundation for developing technique, theory, rhythm and creativity.

8. Creativity and Musical Expression

Students are encouraged to develop their own musical ideas, experiment with sound, improvise, compose and discover a personal connection with the instrument.

9. Preparation for Performances and Entrance Examinations

Advanced students can receive structured support in preparing for concerts, auditions and entrance examinations at music schools, conservatoires and music universities.

10. Personal and Supportive Lessons

My aim is to create a positive, patient and respectful learning environment. Mistakes are treated as a natural part of the learning process, and each lesson is built around realistic goals and sustainable progress.

Whether you are picking up the guitar for the first time or looking to take your playing to a more advanced level, I will support you in developing your skills, confidence and individual musical voice.

Gustavo
Professor with a Higher Diploma in Piano from the Liceu Conservatory of Music in Barcelona and specializing in Spanish music from the Frank Marshall Academy (founded by Enrique Granados).

My curriculum is comprehensive and progressive. My teaching method focuses primarily on good sight-reading, combined with refined piano technique.

I also address learning difficulties such as postural problems, tension, and faulty touch.

My piano technique is based on the Enrique Granados school and his specific touch-based method, emphasizing sound and proper pedal use.

We will work on three basic sections: technique exercises, studies, and works from all styles (Baroque, Classical, Romantic, etc.).

We will also cover music theory (theory + daily exercises from the ABSRM method), solfège, choral singing, written ear training, score analysis, and concert listening exercises.

In addition to my in-person lessons, my online classes feature high-quality audio and video specifically designed for musicians: via the Zoom video call app (with settings that typically offer better sound for piano), and using OBS production software so you can clearly see the keyboard and hands from different angles.
Sound is captured with Behringer stereo microphones (piano) and a separate microphone for vocals, and multiple screens are used to combine sheet music, explanation, and real-time demonstration.

The goal is to make the online lesson as close as possible to an in-person class.

I have 30 years of experience as a teacher. Lessons are personalized to each student's needs, for all levels and ages (children and adults).
