About Gianluca

Hello everybody! I'm a Pianist and Composer applauded by Hollywood Stars. Can't wait to play for you and spread my energy through music!

Verified profile

Music can speak any language- indeed, along history, the Piano performances were considered among the most luxurious forms of entertainment. Today, more than ever, the piano performances are the highlights of any exquisite or classy event or gathering. I believe that the artist has to be a "showman" himself, easily adapting his music according to the public he has in front of him. I have had a very well-sculpted Classical formation, graduating the famous Italian Music Academy "San Pietro a Majella" in Naples, where I have studied Piano and Composition. Afterwards, my personal and professional growth has embraced some unique experiences as a Pianist- performer/entertainer for various high-class events in Italy, United Kingdom and USA, where I was honored by the presence of several world known celebrities and Hollywood stars, but also by bright and passionate music lovers who were always happy to "dive" into the musical journey I was taking them to with my music. My affection and vocation for music as an artistic phenomenon is endless, from where my style is a beautiful fusion among various styles and genres, from the charm and elegance of the Classical music, to the joyful touch of Pop and Rock, with masterfully incorporated shades of Latin vibes, Blues and Jazz: every performance is a celebration of rhythm and colors, that find themselves into brand new sounding improvisations. I am also a Composer, which gives me a range of fantastic pieces of my own ( that can be heard on all my official pages ), and also the easy hand for putting together a great number of arrangements and carefully blent musical moments. * One of the main request from my side would be the presence of the Piano at the venue. I will be willing to provide only the artistic part of the event. I have a very easy-going and positive personality, I am open to new ideas and projects and I truly consider each of my performance special and unique, for I put an enormous amount of energy into what I do, and it is a hundred percent worth it, every single time. Therefore, for more details and for the possibility of planning your event to its perfection, do not hesitate to contact me, and together with my personal manager I will arrange and create the soundtrack for your special moment.

What a treat it was to have Gianluca play for us at my husband's formal 60th birthday dinner. He played so beautifully and his presence added to our evening enormously. His choice of music and musicality was superb and completely fitted our brief. He arrived on time, communicated throughout the booking process and gave us complete confidence. I highly recommend Gianluca's professionallism and it was a pleasure to work with him - thank you so much Gianluca.

Gianluca was fantastic on our wedding ceremony. A talented pianist that plays with passion and poise. His rendition of cannon in D had tears rolling down our eyes. Punctual, responsive, reliable and charming. We are very happy to have chosen him.

Hello Karla, sorry for the late reply. I’m so glad you and Simon have been happy about my performance at your fantastic wedding. It has been a big pleasure for me also because it was the first time I have played for a Buddhist ceremony. I wish you both all the very best, Gianluca Fronda

A brilliant performance every time! Organised, with a great etiquette and approach for his position. Gianluca does definitely add a very pleasant atmosphere to our evenings with his bespoke piano skills. Also open and positive when it comes to planned or to last minute musical requests from our guests, reason for which we do appreciate him even more, and so do our customers. All in all, would definitely recommend Gianluca Fronda and his amazing performances for any occasion and event.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Summing up the feedback I have been receiving so far, my clients love the most my melodic approach towards every song covered: the beauty of my melodies always gets applauded. My performance can create an atmosphere of both warmth and energy. Every pianist has a signature and mine would be to brighten up the music I play and with it, the place I am in.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I am playing regularly at venues like the Savoy Hotel, The Ritz, the Four Seasons Hotels, the Browns, the Intercontinental Hotel, and more, plus private venues and public squares like the "Piazza Duomo" in Amalfi ( Italy ) and other international destinations, including some jazz club in Manhattan, New York.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

If in the past the only artists that influenced me were the classical composers Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, etc., further on I have been influenced by cinematic, rock and pop culture: the Queen, which has become a kind of obsession and then Morricone, Hans Zimmer, John Williams, Sting, Elton John, U2, Lucio Dalla, Adele, and the list could go on...

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

It is unfair for a performer to choose among gigs, as in all of them I have invested my time and effort, making them unique, but obviously, there are events like a (solo) grand concert in Amalfi ( Italy), a series of performances at the historical Ritz and Savoy, and some private events where the audience exalted literally and that are milestones for me!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I always try my best to be flexible to help ensure your event runs as smoothly as possible. If timings change slightly in the run-up to the event just let me know and I'll be happy to help!

How much time do you need to set up?

Since I am a Piano Player, I don't need more than 15 minutes to be ready if at your venue there is the piano already.

If I have a piano at my venue, are you happy to perform on that?

I'm more than happy to play on your piano as long as it is in working order and in tune!

Can I pick the songs you play from the set list?

My set lists are crafted from countless performances and learning what works best to ensure guests have an amazing time. However, I'm definitely happy to chat through and make sure we find what works for your event.

Are you able to bring your own piano or keyboard?

Yes, I can, but it has to be always discussed in advance.

Can you learn song requests before the event?

If a song isn't included in my song list there may still be a chance I already know it. If there is a special song you'd like me to learn I am happy to do this for you.
