Stefano Dallaporta

Born in Italy. I started enjoying music since i was really young listening to my grandmother who was a piano player.. After a first bad :-) experiment with violin, i moved to guitar and then to the bass. I've studied with many great musicians: Daniele di Gregorio, Stefano Olivato, David Clark, Claudio Zanghieri, clinics with Faso, Christian Meyer, C.Cicognani, Maxx Furian, Lorenzo Feliciati, . Francis Rocco Prestia, David Garibaldi. In 2005 i reached the diploma at C.P.M. (Centro Professione Musica) in Milan with the great teacher and bass maestro Dino d'Autorio and other insipiring teachers like Paolino Dalla Porta, M.Colombo, and P. La Pietra. I spent one year in London (U.K.) where i studied arrangement and composition with the spanish (better to say catalan :-)) Albert Vila Reche (Berklee College Boston) at the LCCM the London Centre of Contemporary Music and i had a taste of the London music scene. I'm attending the jazz course degree at the conservatory of Ferrara studyng with Roberto Spadoni, Luca Bragalini, Claudio Campadello, Ares Tavolazzi, Ellade Bandini and other great teachers.I think i'm really lucky cause so far i've had the pleasure to play with many great musicians like: Ricky Portera, Maurizio Solieri, Sergio Pescara, Giorgio Zanier, Daniele Di Gregorio, Valerio Galla, Sabrina Turri, Giuliano Perin, Carbon 13 (U.K.), Graziano Colella, Enrico Mecenero, Emanuele Giordani, Antonio Cordaro, Alberto Lovison, Nicolò Loro Ravenni, Lorenzo Faggin, Diego Crivellaro, Frank Martino, Filippo VIgnato, Diego Pozzan...I can't wait to share the stage with other inspiring musicians and learn from them.I almost forgot to say that in November 2006 i graduated at the University of Padova in Materials Science!!!! Good For Me!!!!!
