Tome Kostovski's Profile

Background:

My name is Tome Kostovski, and I’m a pianist originally from Bitola, Republic of North Macedonia, born on December 30, 1997. I began my musical education at the age of 7 and started piano lessons at 8 under the guidance of Professor M.Sc. Marija Samoska-Budzakovski. After high school, I enrolled at the Faculty of Music at Saints Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, studying with Professor Dr. Anna Gatseva. In 2019, I had the opportunity to move to Trieste, Italy, through the Erasmus+ exchange program. That experience was so transformative that I chose to continue my studies at the Giuseppe Tartini Conservatory, in the class of Professor Teresa Trevisan. I hold a First-Level Academic Diploma in Piano, as well as two Second-Level Academic Diplomas—one in Piano and one in Chamber Music—from the Tartini Conservatory. I am currently pursuing a Master’s Degree (Second Level) in Piano Performance.
