Aïda is an active concert pianist and the recipient of over 20 awards at international and national piano competitions. A graduate of the prestigious University of Cambridge and Guildhall School of Music and Drama, she uses her passion for music and the arts to create ground-breaking and often multidisciplinary concert experiences. She has performed in 11 countries, and her work has been the object of several television and radio profiles.
Aïda has 10 years of experience teaching one-to-one piano lessons, from complete beginners to semi-professional students, and from 4-year-olds to senior adults. Under her guidance, some of her students have achieved top prizes at national competitions.
By putting meaning and artistic vision at the heart of her pedagogical practice, she aims to treat her students like the artists that they are, give them the confidence to express themselves authentically, and provide them with the methods to work towards achieving whatever dreams they may have.
“In my lessons, we will approach music as a living thing, and a source from which we can learn more about ourselves and the world. I often bring up concepts from psychology and neuroscience, music theory, literature, philosophy, history, drama, and more, to help contextualise what we are trying to achieve as pianists and musicians.”
“I was lucky to have amazing teachers that made me leave my lessons bright-eyed, excited, and inspired. My objective is to replicate this with my students.”
