I’m often asked, “how did it all begin”?

I was born in the south of Brazil and developed an early interest in the piano, this imposing and grand instrument. But since the beginning of my musical training, I sought originality and authenticity, looking for ways to connect the piano with the audience in a way that is not common in classical music.

At the same time that I sought this differential in music, my life has always been linked to nature, and this relationship is a constant source of inspiration. Joining these two passions was the next step. Today, I incorporate natural elements into organic and expressive performances, and outside the stage, I work on forming partnerships in the areas of preservation, education and development.

Music makes us travel, and for me, the piano is part of that adventure – a constant source of inspiration, innovation and transformation.

The piano is one of the most fascinating instruments for the public, be it for the appearance, sound or complexity of the construction. I don’t want the piano to be an instrument reserved for theatres and concert halls, confined to the great halls and accessible to a few. Following my instinct to innovate and being faithful to my artistic mission, I try to find ways to demystify and democratize this medium and to take the piano from being a mere musical instrument to become a means of social transformation.
