The Brazilian pianist and music pedagogue, Sílvio Ricardo Baroni, obtained his Bachelor of Music degree from Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (1984-1988); his Master of Arts degree from Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho under the guidance of Maria Francisca Paez Junqueira (1992-1994); his PhD in Music degree from Universidade de São Paulo (USP) under the guidance of Amílcar Zani Netto (1995-1999); and made his post-doctorate at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas (UniCamp) (2003). He was a pupil of the pianist and Professor Pietro Maranca with whom he worked for 12 years. During this period, as part of the study of piano and Maranca's didactics, he deepened his research on the piano technique based on the scientific knowledge of the anatomy and physiology of the upper limbs. From the Baroque period through Classicism, Romanticism to the various strands of 20th-century music, each aesthetic period is focused on all the technical innovations brought by composers who have devoted themselves to pianistic literature such as the great and innovative transformations in instrument writing introduced by Frédéric Chopin. All of his research culminated in his postdoctoral research.
Sílvio Baroni teaches classical piano at the Universidade Estadual de Campinas, and currently lives in São Paulo, Brazil. Among his pupils and/or pianists who attended his master-classes: Daniela Andrea Torres Cabezas Hercules Gomes, Diogo Marques, André Pédico, Leandro Roverso, Sergio Luiz de Sousa. |
