About Me
- Leonardo Ciampa
- Boston/Natick, MA, United States
- LEONARDO CIAMPA is an organist, pianist, composer, author, and vocal coach/accompanist and is highly thought of in each of those areas. Ciampa's compositions (which have been called “Neoromantic”) include orchestral, choral, chamber, and solo compositions. As an organ recitalist, Ciampa has made numerous tours of Italy, Austria, and Germany. Currently he is Artistic Director of the MIT Chapel Organ Concerts and Music Director of Christ Lutheran Church in Natick, MA. As a piano recitalist, Ciampa is known for his warm sound and colorful style reminiscent of the Golden Age of Pianists (pre-World War I). He is especially noted for his interpretations of Chopin, whose 200th birthday he commemorated with a series of six recitals in Boston (fall, 2010). Mr. Ciampa's compositions are published exclusively by CIC (http://cicmusica.com).
