Daniele Rebaudo

Piano and percussion player - teacher

In love with music all his life, he started playing the piano and drums at the age of 11, graduating from the Conservatory in 2011 in piano, and in 2016 in Percussion Instruments. The attraction for rhythm and percussion have always been predominant, until he came into possession of his first Handpan: the instrument that perfectly connected Melody and Rhythm, previously studied "separately" on piano, drums and percussion. He therefore decided to channel the those aspects towards this wonderful musical instrument, bringing back and re-adapting, in his approach, all the techniques and strategies learned up to this moment during his journey within the Conservatories of "Higher Artistic and Musical Training ".
