About Me
Ignazio "Iggy" Di is an Italian guitarist, singer, composer, songwriter, producer, and music educator. He began studying music at the age of 9, initially inspired by Blues-Rock icons like Jimi Hendrix, BB King, Robben Ford, Ritchie Kotzen, and Gary Moore, before discovering Progressive Rock, Jazz, and Classical music.

Deciding to pursue music professionally, he focused on classical guitar at the "Vincenzo Bellini" Conservatory under the guidance of Maestro Francesco Buzzurro, where he obtained his First Level Diploma. At the age of 16, he composed his first instrumental Progressive-Rock demo, "Where Do the Thoughts Come From?", earning recognition as a young talent from several major magazines, including "Top Demo" honors from Metal Shock, Chitarre, Raw&Wild, and Metal Hammer.

In 2008, he graduated in Business Economics from Luigi Bocconi University in Milan. Simultaneously, he completed five years of dedicated training at the Accademia Civica "Claudio Abbado" in Milan, having the privilege of studying under Franco Cerri, a pioneering figure in Italian jazz guitar. He also earned a Master’s Degree in Jazz from the "Antonio Vivaldi" Conservatory of Music in Alessandria.

His technical prowess earned him prestigious awards and scholarships at a young age, including Best Guitarist at Berklee Umbria Jazz 2009 and Nuoro Jazz 2010. He won first prize in the "Ziua Chitarelor 2" competition in Bucharest, impressing a distinguished jury that included Jennifer Batten (M.Jackson's Guitarist), Andreas Öberg, Michael Lee Firkins, Stu Hamm, and Damjan Pejcinoski. He was also selected as one of the 12 global finalists for Guitar Idol 2011 from over 1,030 guitarists worldwide. Following this, he joined the JTC_Guitar Artists roster, where his instrumental song received widespread acclaim, garnering more than 700,000 views on YouTube. During this period, he opened for Reb Beach and Guthrie Govan with his trio in Milan.

Iggy studied Fusion-Jazz guitar with Alex Stornello and served as the founder and director of the Modern Music Institute (MMI) in Milan from 2010 to 2013. He contributed educational articles and videos to Guitar Club Magazine and introduced his signature "Gnazz tap-pick," an innovative guitar pick designed for eight-finger tapping. His reach extended to mainstream media when he appeared as the guitarist in the global Peugeot 208 GTI commercial. In 2014, he released his debut instrumental album, "A Gift to the World," to critical acclaim.

In 2013, he moved to Belgium, where he obtained a Master’s Degree in Music Didactics from the Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles. He began performing extensively across the BeNeLux jazz scene, covering styles from Fusion and Bebop to Jazz Manouche. Simultaneously, he spent over a decade working as a live and studio session musician across genres like Pop-Rock, Funk, and Soul. He served as a jazz guitar teacher for the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and conducted clinics for Ibanez Benelux.

During this time, he also refined his vocal skills at the Universal Voice Institute in Amsterdam under Alberto Ter Doest and Marcela Bovio.

As the founder and creative leader of the symphonic-progressive metal band Silent Utopia, he released both an EP and a full-length album. He served as the project’s main songwriter, orchestral arranger, guitarist, and keyboardist, securing prestigious sponsorships from Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles and SABAM. For these releases, he collaborated with top metal producer Joost Van Den Broek (Epica, Blind Guardian, Ayreon, Powerwolf).

Over the last few years, Iggy shifted his artistic focus toward his true passion: expressing himself as a Rock-Blues guitarist, singer, and songwriter inspired by Jeff Buckley, Miles Kennedy, Ritchie Kotzen, and John Mayer.

Now based in Warsaw, Poland, he works as a session guitarist, full-time music teacher, and solo Blues-Rock artist. He is currently studying sound engineering at HOFA College while writing his upcoming album. In 2024, he released two new singles, "Learn The Hard Way" and "Safe and Warm," which reflect his current artistic evolution as a singer-guitarist and songwriter.

Iggy proudly endorses Victory Amps and Ibanez Guitars.

Cześć wszystkim,

nazywam się Ignazio i jestem certyfikowanym nauczycielem muzyki, profesjonalnym gitarzystą i wokalistą mieszkającym w Warszawie, w okolicy Mokotowa.

Ukończyłem Conservatoire Royal de Bruxelles oraz posiadam dwa dyplomy magisterskie z jazzu: z Civica Scuola di Musica Claudio Abbado w Mediolanie oraz z Conservatorio Antonio Vivaldi w Alessandrii.

Oferuję indywidualne lekcje gitary dla dzieci, młodzieży i dorosłych, na różnych poziomach zaawansowania.

Uczę stylów: rock, blues, pop, jazz, gitara akustyczna, improwizacja, technika, akordy, rytm oraz przygotowanie do grania z zespołem.

Prowadzę również lekcje śpiewu, szczególnie dla osób, które chcą połączyć głos z grą na gitarze.

Mam poziom C1 z języka angielskiego i francuskiego, a język włoski jest moim językiem ojczystym. Lekcje mogą być więc również świetną okazją dla osób, które chcą doskonalić te języki, ucząc się jednocześnie muzyki.

Folk or classical acoustic guitar.

The teaching philosophy is adapted to the level of each individual, according to the pace of work and motivation.

For example, for beginners: Technique of the plectrum or fingers, coordination and correction of the right and left hand. Learning basic chords, simple themes, simple rhythms, reading tablatures (...).

For intermediaries: development of rhythm, construction of chords, writing of tablatures, basic notions of harmony (...).

Depending on your goals, you can learn, if you wish, to play 60 to 80% of current music from the first lessons, which often use the same chords and the same techniques. The objectives take into consideration the following points:

-Study of various playing techniques, chords, harmony, music of your choice, rhythm, with reading of tablature, teaching structured around the repertoire you like, technique of developing the musical ear
- Discovery of the neck, notes and basic positions of open chords
- Left / right hand coordination and rhythm exercises for the right hand
- Learning of different pieces of your choice
- Left hand control exercises, speed and precision
- Learning arpeggios
- Work around muscle memory
- Learning improvisation, musical play with others
- Ear training: use your ears to find chords, melodies, sounds and techniques used
-Spend a pleasant moment of exchange, without unnecessary institutional pressure, while obtaining concrete results
-Understand and discover the many facets of an exciting and user-friendly instrument
- Benefit from personalized advice on your posture and certain pitfalls to avoid when starting alone
-Adjust and clarify your self-taught knowledge
- Learn tablatures / tabs & in English.

Note :
- Possibility to use the guitar available on site, during the test phase.
- As our teacher is also a singing teacher, it is possible to combine the two disciplines: guitar + vocal instrument, and to work on synchronization, style and accuracy.
- Possibility of offering this course (birthday, party, Christmas, event ...) to the person of your choice.

THE TEACHER :
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has worked for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field, in renowned international public and private establishments, with careful pedagogy and methodology as the watchwords.

PLACES :
- 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.
