Stefano Montanari took his diploma in violin and piano and was awarded honours. He then received a diploma of specialisation in Chamber Music under Maestro Pier Narciso Masi at the Music Academy of Florence, and obtained his diploma as soloist under Maestro Carlo Chiarappa at the Swiss Italian  School of Music in Lugano.
