About Davide
With years of international experience as both a performer and educator, I bring a well-rounded, student-focused approach to every lesson. I’ve played in great venues like Dizzy’s Club in New York and the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. With three years of teaching experience—including a year in two New York City schools—I’ve developed clear, effective ways to engage learners of all ages. My goal is to help you feel confident, inspired —whether you’re preparing for an audition, picking up your instrument for the first time, or diving deeper into jazz or classical music. I’m patient, encouraging, and passionate about helping musicians at any level grow and enjoy the journey.

Meet Your Music Tutor — Davide Ciao! I’m Davide — a 24-year-old Italian professional musician and multi-instrumentalist based in New York City. I play clarinet, bass clarinet, tenor, and baritone saxophone, and I specialize in both jazz and classical music. I've been gigging across Europe and the US in the last 6 years, and I bring that stage experience into every lesson. Whether you're aiming for conservatory auditions, building your improvisation chops, or just picking up the instrument for the first time, I’m here to help you grow with clarity, structure, and creativity. Here’s What a Lesson Might Look Like: Warm-Up: Tone, articulation, breath work Technique: Scales, harmony, rhythm, applied directly to your playing Repertoire or Improvisation: From classical etudes to jazz solos, we’ll work on material that challenges and excites you Wrap-Up: Feedback, goals for the week, and maybe a cool tune to check out What Sets Me Apart Real Stage Experience: I’ve performed at venues like Dizzy’s Club, the Concertgebouw, and many jazz venues across Europe and the US Dual Training: My background blends jazz freedom with classical precision Flexible Mindset: I adapt to your pace and learning style, always keeping the lessons focused and fun International Perspective: Having studied and taught across Italy, the Netherlands, and the US, I bring a wide cultural lens to my teaching. Who I Teach: Clarinet and saxophone students of all levels High school students getting ready for conservatory entrance Adults returning to music or starting fresh Jazz players looking to deepen their improvisation and theory Classical musicians wanting to expand stylistically with improvisation and more
Review

Perfect! Davide is an excellent instructor for my son who is a serious 12 year old clarinetist. Davide has trained at the best conservatories and performs regularly internationally, yet he is a down to earth and inspiring tutor who encourages my son to be the best version of himself. Davide is strict but fun and his classes are challenging without being discouraging. My son looks forward to his lessons every week. Do not hesitate to contact Davide! You will not regret it.
Perfect! Very patient and adapted lessons to my goals. Highly recommend!
