Federico Rondolini
Born in Termoli in June 1994, Giovanni di Carlo began taking guitar lessons at the age of five. A few years later, he obtained his fifth-year diploma in classical guitar and music theory at the Lorenzo Perosi Conservatoire in Campobasso. In 2013, he moved to Brussels to study at the Koninklijk Conservatorium, where he was awarded a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in jazz guitar with the distinction ‘Magna cum Laude’, under the guidance of Fabien Degryse and Peter Hertmans.
During his time at the conservatoire, Giovanni also took composition lessons with the renowned Belgian pianist Diederik Wissels, with whom he would soon begin a significant collaboration. In July 2016, Giovanni was selected as one of the ten semi-finalists in the prestigious Montreux International Competition, where he had the honour of meeting and subsequently collaborating with Philipp Fankhauser, a member of the jury. In 2018, he won third prize at the “Sharon Lynne Wilson Center” International Jazz Guitar Competition in Brookfield (USA).
