I am Osman Meyredi, originally Italian but now living in Amsterdam.

I am a musician multi-instrumentalist, specialized in bass guitar, electric guitar and keyboards, with a master's degree in double bass and a bachelor in music in education.

Music is more than a passion, it's the reason to live...

It all began very early, playing the piano from the age of six: after hearing the songs I could play them instantly, without sheet music. My heart opened to the music.

After a short period during which I played saxophone and clarinet, I began to play percussions and drums in a marching band. A few years later I also began to study guitar by myself.

In 2002 I was admitted to the conservatory of Trento (IT) and in 2009 I got my master's degree in double bass.

After my studies in Italy, I worked as a teacher: for four years I have been working in several educational institutions, including "Istituto comprensivo del Chiese", "Istituto comprensivo di Tione" (secondary school – musical education/music theory) and "Scuola Musicale Giudicarie" (music school – double bass, bass guitar, and guitar).

A turning point came in July 2014, when I decided to move to Amsterdam, a choice that opened a new horizon for me. This change gave me the opportunity to get acquainted with the multicultural music scene.

Here in the Netherlands, I perform in places such as Paradiso, Bourbon Street, Waterhole, De Heeren van Aemstel, De Nieuwe Anita and I also have experience in international touring. I am also working as a session musician and I can play different kinds of music: classical, jazz, fusion, R&B,  soul, pop, rock and electronic.

From January 2019 I started working as a music teacher at the international school DENISE " De Nieuwe Internationale School Esprit" in Amsterdam and in June 2020 I graduated from the conservatory of Amsterdam in "Music in Education" (Bachelor of Education).

Last but not least, I produce, arrange, compose my own music and the music of other international artists.
