DISCOVER THE COURSE
Marco Vassallo is a young multi-instrumentalist from Genoa. He has been drawn to the world of music since early childhood, thanks to the passion passed down to him by his father.
He begins his educational journey at around 20 months of age, playing exclusively fingerstyle/fingerpicking guitar for about ten years; at the age of 11, he enters the Niccolò Paganini Conservatory in Genoa, which he attends for a period.
At the same time, two new interests blossom: one for rock music and the other for the world of keyboards. These two paths are pursued with time and daily practice; in particular, the study of the electric guitar continues and is refined through studies at the Lizard Academies in Turin, under the guidance of Tony de Gruttola.
As for the approach to keyboards, it is the result of a prior knowledge of music, which has always been analyzed very critically, also - but not only - thanks to the absolute ear, and, above all, to many hours of daily practice.
Last but not least, a great passion for computer science has made the "nerd" world of the keyboardist, made up of automations and MIDI, one of his main areas of expertise.
One of the experiences that has most significantly marked Marco is undoubtedly the encounter with the reality of Musicoff Young; within this project, he was able to confront extremely heterogeneous dimensions, both musical and human, and derive great growth from it.
