Renan conducting an orchestra
Performance & Conducting

The stage, where it all began.

Orchestral percussion, chamber ensembles, and the conductor's podium. The artistry that lives in every lesson Renan teaches.

A performer first

A musician who never left the stage.

Renan's life in music has always run on two tracks, the studio and the stage, and each feeds the other. As an orchestral percussionist he has lived inside the texture of large ensembles; from the podium he has shaped them. That dual vantage is rare, and it's exactly what he passes to students.

What he learns under stage lights, listening across an entire group, shaping a phrase in real time, holding nerve and tempo together, is what he carries back to every lesson.
