“The passionate playing style of the young Italian pianist Gabriele Leporatti, full of aesthetic sensibility and depth, shows the influence of his teachers Maria Tipo and Fabio Bidini. Gabriele graduated "summa cum laude" from the Luigi Cherubini Conservatory in Florence when aged only nineteen, before moving on to further study in the USA and Germany. Prizewinner of several national and international piano competitions, he enjoys an active concert schedule with extensive concert tours that have taken him to Spain, several times to the USA, to Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Estonia, Poland, South Africa, Turkey and China, and to prestigious concert venues including London's Wigmore Hall, the broadcasting house of NDR Hannover, Amsterdam's Concertgebouw and the He Luting Hall in Shanghai.”
