ABOUT
Alessandro Fossi was born in Monteroberto (Ancona, Italy) in 1975.
In 1996, he graduated from the "Conservatorio B. Maderna" in Cesena, where he was exposed to "Bel Canto," the title of his first solo CD.
He became a tuba player and started accumulating experience playing with some renowned orchestras such as La Scala Opera House, the Russian National Orchestra, Mariinsky Theatre Orchestra in St. Petersburg, Mahler Chamber Orchestra, and Orchestra Mozart created by Claudio Abbado.
In his career, from 1997 to 2005, he also held the Principal Tuba position at San Carlo Opera House in Naples and at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia Orchestra in Rome.
In 2010, he became the Acting Principal Tuba of Teatro Comunale di Bologna Orchestra, a collaboration which stands to the present day.
Besides his orchestral career, he also performs as a tuba soloist.
He participated in and won two of the most important international tuba competitions: at Markneukirchen International Tuba Competition in 2000 and the Lieksa International Tuba Competition in 2001.
Those two successful results led him to explore the music coach career.
Sharing with other musicians the knowledge achieved over the years has become his personal mission.
He has been invited to teach and perform in world-renowned festivals and universities such as Curtis Institute in Philadelphia, Northwestern University in Chicago, Indiana University, Manhattan School of Music in New York, Conservatoire Supérieur de Musique de Genève, Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse in Paris, and the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester.
