Biographies of the coaches

Maxime Alberti, piano
Lyon-born Maxime Alberti studied at the Geneva Haute Ecole de Musique with Sylviane Deferne and obtained his first "soloist" master with distinction. He then pursued his studies with Rena Shereshevskaïa in Paris at the Alfred Cortot school and received an unanimous concert diploma in 2020. He then returned to Geneva for a master in pedagogy with Cédric Pescia in 2022. An inquisitive mind and eager to learn, Maxime multiplies travels and encounters that nurture his music. He particularly thrives on stage where his sensitive and enthousiastic playing reaches across to audiences, in search of a continued connection. His eclectism allows him to explore multiple musical genres and to alternate between soloist and chamber musician.
In search of constant improvement, he studies with masters such as Dominique Merlet, Anne Quéffelec and Leon Fleisher, in Villecroze or Royaumont for instance. Il received a scholarship of the French-American Piano Society and gave a recital in the "Pink Room" of the french consulate in New-York.
