Hello,

My name is Marco, and I invite you to pass on my passion for the guitar, and more broadly for music.

Music brings a lot. Whether it's emotions, personal satisfaction, moments of grace, whether you're a spectator or on stage, encounters and exchanges that are so interesting with other musicians...

My goal is to send you enough motivation and pleasure so that you never give up on this inexhaustible source of joy and discovery.

To achieve this, my main tool, as in music, will be listening.
Listening to you, understanding what you dream of achieving, then helping you get there, this is my method. So my experience and my knowledge will allow us to approach the styles that interest you: Songs, Pop, Rock, Folk, Fingerstyle, Blues, Jazz, Groove, Bossa nova, Samba... as much as to accompany you in your own creations .

So during our first session we will discuss the artists and guitarists who are close to our hearts. If you already know songs, you can play them for me, easily, without stress, and for the most advanced among you, it will even be an opportunity to jam.

Whether it's for you or your child, whether you're a student or a retiree, I'm interested in all profiles, because everyone can have fun learning to play the guitar.

See you soon !

Marco

PLACES, FEES
- Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Neuchâtel-Montreux-Bâle-Sion-Sierre-Morges-Bienne. But currently, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of direct (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (ex: loss of travel time), with additional advantages (ex: of notes on the chat, which can be reread afterwards). In this context, these videoconference sessions for which you have requested me, seem to arouse a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). At your request, I therefore continue to offer them.

Passionate about her instrument since the age of 7, she is a high-level artist with a remarkable career. A graduate of the Milan Conservatory in 2017 and holder of two master's degrees from the Lausanne University of Music, she has won numerous prizes at international competitions.

A passionate teacher, she is also involved in chamber music and enriching the harp repertoire through arrangements and original compositions. She has pursued advanced studies with renowned professors such as Gabriella Dall'Olio, Park Stickney, Luisa Prandina, Maria Rosa Calvo-Manzano, Gloria Martinez, Olga Shevelevich, Letizia Belmondo, Eleanor Turner, Fabrice Pierre, and Renaud Capuçon in chamber music.

These studies, as well as the constant and passionate practice of his instrument, allowed him, from the age of 10, to participate in international competitions and win several prizes, such as second prize at the IX Concorso Internazionale di Esecuzione Musicale Città di Asti, first prize in the solo and chamber music category at the Saluzzo Music Pizzico Competition F. Gatti, first prize at the European Music Competition Città di Moncalieri as well as second prize at the Concorso Internazionale di Esecuzione Musicale-Città di Treviso 2020.

In 2022, she won first prize at the Lavaux Classique festival with tenor Leonardo Sanchez for the project Los Ritmos del Amor. This success allowed her to present this program at the 2023 festival, accompanied by a personal creation: an interactive musical tale for children, exploring the sounds of the harp and the world of Harry Potter.

Particularly involved in cultural mediation, she collaborates with the Partemus association and participated in a concert for families during the prestigious Easter Festival in Aix-en-Provence.
As an orchestral musician, Luna has played with renowned ensembles such as the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, the Lausanne Chamber Orchestra, the Valéik Philharmonik, the Ensemble de Joux, the Sinfo Romandie Chamber Orchestra, and the Teatro Coccia of Novara.

Her passion for chamber music drives her to constantly explore new sounds, as evidenced by her varied projects: her collaboration with singer Floriane Derthe, broadcast on Espace 2 in 2021; her arrangement of Variations on a Theme from Chopin's La Cenerentola for harp and oboe, recorded with Edoardo Pezzini; as well as her contributions to the CD Los Colores de Latinoamérica with tenor Leonardo Sanchez in 2022, for which she wrote several arrangements.

Since October 2023, she has actively collaborated with the Opera for Peace association, dedicated to promoting young operatic talent worldwide. It is thanks to Opera for Peace that she has the opportunity to fully dedicate herself to enriching and creating arrangements for her instrument.
