Alberto Cartuccia Cingolani – ABSOLUTE WINNER, Piano


Alberto Cartuccia Cingolani

Alberto Cartuccia Cingolani was born in Macerata on 05/04/2017 and attends the second grade of the Primary School of the municipality of Treia. His first approach to music took place in 2020, during the lockdown, when, together with his mother Alessia, graduated in opera singing at the Conservatory “L. D’Annunzio” of Pescara, he began to take his first steps on the keyboard, through small musical games and songs. Gradually, remarkable attitudes emerged, supported by a strong absolute ear already evident at the age of 3 and registered important progress, which in a short time, in 2021, led him to face international piano competitions online by age categories, receiving the first excellent results. At present, always under the guidance of his mother and father Simone, a pianist who graduated from the “G.Rossini” Conservatory in Pesaro, Alberto has collected 70 first prizes, many of which are absolute, in national and international competitions, on line and in attendance, among which we remember “City of Albenga”, “Piano Talents Milano”, “C.Schumann – Massa”, “Rospigliosi”, WPTA Madrid, “Orbetello Piano Competition”, “London Classical Music Competition”, “BTHWN – Vienna”, “Musik Festival Vienna”, “Elsa Pozzoli” of Seregno (MB), “Riviera Etrusca” – Piombino, “Northern Lights Piano Festival – Sweden”, “Grand Prize Royal Mass – London”, “San Donà di Piave (VE)”, “Steinway Award – Italy 2023”, International Music Festival Paris 2024, Clavierland Piano Competition Vienna 2024 and many others.
A video of him performing Mozart’s Sonata k 545, at a piano competition, has gained millions of views, and has also received great attention in the international press. As a small pianist, also as soloist with orchestra, he participated in various cultural and charitable events, musical festivals and events including the Festival Liszt – Grottammare 2023, Civitanova Classica 2024, PianoItalia Festival 2023 at the Conservatory “G.
