Conosco da molto tempo Ferdinando. Ho avuto il piacere di suonare con lui in diverse occasioni, e ogni volta sono rimasto colpito dalla sua bravura, inventiva, sensibilita' e disponibilita'. Sono sicuro che chi avra' la fortuna e l'occasione di studiare sotto la sua guida avra' enormi vantaggi nella tecnica, nella creativita', raggiungendo un alto livello esecutivo e artistico, grazie alla sua enorme esperienza acquisita studiando, suonando e insegnando in Europa e in America.
Spero di suonare ancora con lui!

Gentili parole da una leggenda italiana della tromba (sull'oceano e a terra!) per concerti e incisioni Jazz e collaborazioni in colonne sonore musicali cinematografiche (E.Morricone)
Ferdinando is one of the best pianists I ever worked with. I know him both as a performer: he played with my band, Black Sea Salsa whenever fortune smiled on me, and as a teacher: he taught me daughter for a few years before moving to Italy. He taught her some basics of jazz piano, although most of his students were classical. Ferdinando has an outstanding work ethic. He was always early to rehearsals and gigs, played exceedingly well, and has a great sense of humor, which is a real plus in this business.

Nice words form a fine trumpet player bandleader (and father!) in Massachusetts!
Viviamo un epoca di grandi cambiamenti e di scarsi valori; quanto il jazz può insegnare é legato a un epoca di importanti vicende umane non solo musicali. Ferdinando é un raro artista e insegnante di quei valori.

Grazie, Enzo, e vivi auguri per le tue proprie vicende sia umane che musicali!

Grazie, Liliana,e auguri per le tue "imprese" musicali, sia live che registrate!
I am a musician, composer and educator living in the greater Boston area in the US. Over the several years that Ferdinando also resided in the Boston area, I had the pleasure of working with him in the recording studio and numerous performance venues. As a pianist, vocalist, or arranger, Ferdinando has always been a consummate professional, showing excellent technical ability, warmth and creativity. He has been highly regarded as a pianist and singer, skilled in jazz, pop, ethnic and classical idioms. With his extensive musical knowledge across a range of styles, Ferdinando would be a fine teacher for anyone interested in studying piano, learning about music theory, or developing their singing skills.

Gentili parole da un chitarrista eccezionale e versatile in molti generi musicali. Da cercare online sul suo canale You Tube.
I have taken singing lessons from Ferdinando and hired him to play piano on several recording projects at a recording studio. He was very kind and helpful, and he is very musically diverse. I have attended many of his live performances and he knows many musical styles. I have heard him play jazz standards, jazz rock, boogie woogie, funk, bebop, bossa nova, and much more. He can help you develop your vocal skills or piano playing in any style you can imagine. His experience is long, but his true talent is his diversity in so many styles. I wholeheartedly recommend Ferdinando!
