About
Lorenzo Bellini is a Vienna-based pianist, composer, arranger, and bandleader. Bellini's sound blends harmonic depth with melodic clarity and a gospel-infused atmosphere. German Radio BRF1 describes him as an "architect at the piano – one who imbues form and structure with a deeply personal melodic sensibility". Trumpeter Tiger Okoshi says of his music: “powerful, imaginative, innovative, bold, dynamic yet poetic, romantic, lyrical, and truly genuine”.
In 2021, he released his debut album of original compositions, Love Grain. In May 2025, his second album, Source, recorded with his Italian quartet, was released by GleAM Records. He is currently working on a new album of compositions for Big Band, co-written with British bassist Chris Diamand and featuring British musicians mostly.
Bellini graduated in 2021 from Berklee College of Music in Boston (USA), with a degree in Performance. In 2022, he received a scholarship from the Royal Academy of Music in London (UK), where he moved after four years in the United States, enrolling in the Master’s program in Jazz Piano.
He leads an Italian quartet featuring Luca De Toni on guitar, Matteo Padoin on bass, and Andrea Dionisi on drums. With this group he won 1st prize in the 2023 Music 4 The Next Generation contest in Italy for the best composition, Source. Among other projects, he plays with the Cloudy Peaks, an international band based in London featuring Kasper Rietkerk (sx), Luke McCarthy (d), Guy Dempsey (b).
He has performed with artists such as Tiger Okoshi, Ciara Moser, Ni Maxine, Dennis Montgomery, Roberta Gentile.
As an educator, Lorenzo steadily teaches at The Gospel University, a successful online educational platform for gospel and jazz music founded by organist Vaughn Brathwaite.
