    Default is this text ok?

    Hi, I'd like a native speaker's opinion about my text. Can you correct it and give me suggestions if you don't like the style, please?It would be great for me.
    Thanks.
    Ripley.

    Ciccio Bello, born in Massa (Italy) in 1986, graduated in piano at the Istituto Musicale "P. Mascagni", Livorno.
    He also got a Jazz degree under the tutelage of Prof. Grossi.
    He co-founded the band "I Pupi", playing the keyboards and composing almost all of the band's repertoire.

    Looks OK to me. I would only suggest that maybe it should be "graduated with a degree/certificate in piano study".

    " ... graduated in piano studies ..." would sound OK.
