Federico Forla
Oboe
Federico Forla began his studies in Modern Oboe at the Conservatory “G. Verdi” in Turin with B. Oddenino. He studied at the “Accademia dei Musici di Parma” with C. Hartman for two years, before moving to Den Haag. There he received his Master’s degree after studying with A. Ogrintchouk and K. Schoofs at the Koninklijk Conservatorium. In The Netherlands Federico gained interest in the world of Baroque music, and he started to play the Baroque and Classical Oboes, studying with F. de Bruine. Since 2015 he has been awarded a scholarship from the “DeSono” association to support him in his studies and musical activities.
Federico has played with many orchestras in Italy, The Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland and China; these include the Metropole Orkest, the Residentie Orkest, the Camerata Ducale, Orchestra Guido D’Arezzo, Concerto D’Amsterdam, and Concerto Bremen. He has performed with conductors and soloists such as Valerij Gergiev, Salvatore Accardo, Christoph Hartman, Alexei Ogrintchouk, Enrico Pace, Amiram Ganz and Alessandro Quarta.
One of Federico’s main artistic interests is exploring chamber music in all of its forms. He has performed recently with several ensembles in different festivals, such as the MiTo-Settembre Musica, the Festspiele Zuerich, the Festival Oude Muziek in Utrecht and the Takemitzu Festival (De Doelen).
