Vincenzo Scaramuzza

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vincenzo Scaramuzza (19 June 1885 - 1968) was a pianist and music teacher. He taught pianists such as Martha Argerich, Bruno Leonardo Gelber, Fausto Zadra and was teacher of Daniel Barenboim's father. He also taught renowned tango pianist Horacio Salgan.

Scaramuzza was born in Crotone, Italy. He left no record of his teaching system in book form, but a student of his, Maria Rosa Oubiña de Castro, reconstructed it from material he wrote down in his lifetime. The resulting book is called "Enseñanzas de un gran maestro" published in 1927.
