Information: The well succeeded career of the Brazilian pianist Paulo Gazzaneo is based on two trends of his work, the interpretation and the pedagogy, and, recently, on the composition area. He received his MM degree from Unicamp - Universidade Estadual de Campinas under the guidance of Dr Mauricy Matos Martin. In Brazil, Gazzaneo was under the guidance of Amaral Vieira (piano and chamber music) and, Osvaldo Lacerda, Almeida Prado and Sergio Chnee (composition, musical analysis, harmony and counterpoint). He attended several master classes in Brazil and abroad under the guidance of Gilberto Tinetti (Brazil), Sebastian Benda (Austria), Bruno Leonardo Gelber (Argentina), Peter Frankl (Hungary/England), and Zoltan Kocsis (Hungary). In Hungary he studied with Istvan Gulyas and Istvan Lantos at the Franz Liszt Music Academy of Budapest, where he completed his piano studies in 1992. He also studied with Marta Gulyas, Gyorgy Miklos and Ferenc Rados (chamber music) and Mate Hollos (musical analysis and harmony). While in Hungary he also studied with Hans Graff at the Vienna Academy of Music, Austria. After returning to Brazil in 1993 he established himself in Sao Paulo and began an intensive activity as teacher and performer. He then decided to devote himself to the works of Brazilian and Latin American composers, performing and recording works for piano solo and chamber formations.
