About Federico
I started studying saxophone at the age of 7 at a jazz institute in Necochea, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Then I graduated as a music teacher, specialised in saxophone at the "Gilardo Gilardi" classical music conservatory, La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. The last years I have been trained with private jazz teachers, such as Ricardo Cavalli and Guillermo Romero, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Recently I finished my master in jazz performance at CODARTS (Netherlands). Throughout my 29 years of training, I have participated in different groups including 2 classical music orchestras, 3 jazz orchestras and 1 popular music orchestra. Also participate in different formations, playing the saxophone, the clarinet, singing, as a composer and arranger. I taught jazz ensemble classes, both at the Lennon music institute, La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. As well as within the jazz association La Plata.

If a class is well given, the content of it is well above the value of the class, unfortunately in the student role, it takes us a long time to appreciate it. In my case, 5 years after the last class with Ricardo Cavalli (Professor from Argentina) I am still learning from his lessons. The value of what one can offer by giving a class is very high and I am willing to return what was given to me. Check out my videos on YouTube: (concealed information) "(...) I recommend listening to the saxophonist before choosing him as a teacher (...)". For any ages and levels. Nothing is impossible if it is properly learnt. I’ll work personally for each student and based on his/her objectives. Basic level: Sound is developed in a practical and effective manner, as well as the tuning and connouncement of all notes in its different positions. The procedure is intended to allow the student to play different tunes in his instrument in a short period of time. The musical reading and the development of useful harmonic and rhythmic techniques will also be incorporated into the improvisation. Methodology for advanced students: very hard work! ;) We'll educate the rhythm perception as well as harmonic and melodic. We'll improve technique and sound. We will work on the composition and development of personal targets.

Perfect! Easy to understand + Helpful resources provided
Perfect! As a beginner I was nervous for my first lesson, but Federico immediately put me at ease and filled me with confidence and excitement for my learning journey with him!
Perfect! Really nice first lesson with a lot of elements covered!
Perfect! It was a great first class. I totally recommend Federico, he is enthusiastic and explains everything. I cannot wait for the second class with him.
Perfect! What a fantastic saxophone lesson! It was incredibly engaging, fun, and full of valuable insights. The instructor was not only knowledgeable but also made the learning process enjoyable and easy to follow. I’m so glad I chose this lesson – highly recommended!
Perfect! Federico was great in helping to get through the basics and understandings of playing the saxophone and reading notes all while making it fun and enjoyable!
Perfect! Frederico is an outstanding teacher who possesses rare and distinctive qualities. He is an accomplished and highly skilled saxophonist, yet he manages to simplify the learning process in an energetic and patient way. With his approach, he puts you at ease while maintaining a pace that produces immediate results. Frederico's lessons are challenging, entertaining, and interesting, making progress swift. He makes teaching look effortless, which is an art in itself! Therefore, I highly recommend Frederico, whether you are honing your skills or starting from scratch.
Perfect! Federico is a great teacher. Even from the few minutes I could see his enthusiasm for teaching and love of the Saxaphone. Even though I am previously trained in clarinet, he pointed out things I had never even thought of when it came to playing the Saxaphone! Fun, but challenging exercises, broken down well and the lesson flew by.
Perfect! Federico is a music tutor that I needed. He teaches in detail. He has noticed all my small mistakes and corrected them immediately. I've decided to keep lessons with him for a long time till I become an intermediate or advanced tenor Sax player.
Perfect! Federico is a fantastic teacher. He is very clear and extremely patient. Having zero experience with the sax or reading music it was amazing how much he could teach me and all on-line and this is only in two lessons. Most of all he makes the classes really enjoyable and the hour just flies by. I am so impressed. I would highly recommend anyone to work with him.
Perfect! Federico is a great teacher, communicates well and is very patient and supportive.

Perfect! Federico is a fantastic teacher, it has been a joy picking up a new instrument with his help. He answers all my questions even if I don't know how to phrase them correctly ha! I was initially worried about having lessons over skype, but he has completely put me at ease. On many occasions he's been able to see and correct my technique, and I've been able to show him things I've been struggling with which I thought would only be possible via in person. All in all, I would highly recommend Federico.

I have been working with Federico now for several months and he is one of the tutors that take is time to find out exactly where you’re at and then work with you from there. One of the amazing thing about Federico is his patience. He explains and break things down to a level that make it easy for me to understand. He adopts and shapes the lesson to reflect my ability but at the same time it is challenging He has an infectious energy that makes you always want to do more.
Fede is a very patient and knowledgeable tutor. The first free session I had with him felt like a paid session. Totally recommended!!!
I have many years with the saxophone and Federico is an incredible teacher, excellent at explaining and he loves music, I recommend him for all levels of students.
Highly recommend taking classes with Federico! In just my first class I learned so much, he explains very well and has lots of patience!! Very fun and straightforward lessons!!
I had a first lesson with Fede. He impressed me ver well as he not only plays amazingly, but also shown me a good understanding of music, sax, and teaching abilities. I will definitely continue having lessons with him. Thanks Fede!
Federico is a enthousiastic, positive and patience teacher. He takes the time to explain you all the things that you need to know during the lessons.
He communicates very clear and gives feedback in a positive way that you feel the energie to try even harder.
If you dont understand something he feels responsibel to make sure you understand it correctly.
He also gives tailer-made lesson; what you need or want to develop as a saxophonist he give it during the lessons to you. He is very professional and gives you tools and homework that makes learning so much fun en keeps you stay focus.Very close teacher, with solid knowledge of music, adapts to what each one needs, the class flies by. Highly recommended!
I was made to believe I am tone dead and no physical or artistic ability to play an instrument. I was passionate about saxophone and bought a simple one years ago and had put in the corner after quite demoralizing attempts with some instructors. Years later, I decided to give a one last try, stars aligned in the universe and I ended up working with Federico! He is a not only a musical genius he is a wonderkid in teaching. Less than a year later, I can play 7-8 songs for my pleasure, have an understanding finally on musical theory. If I am not yet able to earn my life by playing sax in the park, it is because I am lazy. Any level you are at, or at any skill level, Federico is good for you. I actually must thank his previous reviewers: if they had not filled genuine, heartfelt reviews, I probably had sold my sax 10 times over now.
Fede is really a SUPERprof! He is so professional and able to adapt the lesson in a blink! My two children are so happy and they love music thanks to him. He is so creative, helpful patient, firm and fair! Of course he is amazing playing saxophone!!!!!
