Guido Alberto Fano
Guido Alberto Fano (18 May 1875 in Padua – 14 August 1961 at Tauriano di Spilimbergo) was an Italian pianist and composer. From 1894 he was the favoured pupil of Giuseppe Martucci. In 1905 he was appointed director of the Parma Conservatory, and in 1916 he became director of the Palermo Conservatory. From 1922 he was professor of piano at the Milan Conservatory. In 1938 he was removed from this position because of the Italian Fascist racial laws and from 1943 to 1945 was in hiding at Fossombrone and Assisi. He returned to teaching 1945–47, then retired.
