Are you sure it didn't say: "Je suis devenu pianiste"? The word pianiste can be m/f. Of course "une pianiste" must be feminine, but un/une is not required in that sentence.

Yes you are correct it did say je suis devenu pianiste. I had thought that meant feminine. Thanks for the clarification Krissa
