Luca started learning piano at the age of 6 and is now a Grade 8 pianist and all-round outstanding musician. He was offered a place to study composition and piano at The Royal College of Music in 2021, alongside his school commitments. Luca was also recently accepted onto a masterclass, run by Steinway Pianos and hosted by their Ambassador, Charles Owen. This was an amazing opportunity for Luca to perform some Chopin which he was preparing ahead of the International Chopin Piano Competition later in the year. The day included a tour of Steinway Hall and Luca was allowed to play the Steinway piano that was used at BBC Proms in the summer! A truly incredible experience for this young musician.
