About me

A versatile session drummer based in London. With a Bachelor of Music in Jazz Drums, I've toured Europe, won festivals in Hungary and Italy, and collaborated on albums with leading European artists. From collaborating as a visiting Supporting Artist with the Guild Hall School Music & Drama (Social arts department), performing at major venues like ‘the Barbican’, sharing stages with rock luminaries, to teaching new generation musicians, I fuse technical prowess and artistic passion to connect audiences worldwide through the universal language of rhythm and music.​

There’s never a bad age to start learning to play!

From beginner to advanced, learn how to unlock your creativity and find your own rhythm with the fundamentals of drumming.

Learn the basic coordination, rudiments and application around the kit, playing along to songs, understating the importance of timing, how to read drum notation and exploring a variety of grooves through the different styles of music including pop, rock, jazz, latin and funk.

Learn to play at your own pace with flexible lessons, whether you are learning for fun or studying for graded exams.

“Stefano was an amazing teacher to our son. He was kind, calm and listened when our son wasn’t keen on certain songs or warm ups, happily switching things up to accomodate our boys learning style. We noticed a huge positive change in the way our son played after just few lessons.

We would recommend Stefano to anyone looking to get a drum teacher to their child.”
