Fun Fact:

Realizing early in life that the piano is not the only thing he is passionate about, Raniero has pursued photography, taking countless pictures of concert performances, landscapes, and architecture since 1981.

He aspired to become an astronaut, but alas, he never went into space. However, he did retain his keen interest in astronomy. A lifelong chef and gourmand, Raniero is especially particular about not overcooking pasta: al dente is the way, and the only way.
