Alex Raineri

**Alex Raineri** is an Australian pianist celebrated for his dynamic, genre-blurring approach to contemporary classical music. Based in Brisbane, he’s become a go-to collaborator for living composers, premiering bold new works and championing innovative projects. You’ll often find him curating boundary-pushing performances as the artistic director of the Brisbane Music Festival or diving into experimental collaborations with ensembles like Kupka’s Piano. His recent releases—like the shimmering *Glisten*, the hauntingly atmospheric *A Story from the Sand Dunes*, and the live-recorded emotional punch of *Elegy*—showcase his knack for balancing technical precision with raw storytelling. Whether he’s unpacking Erik Griswold’s playful textures or breathing fresh life into Chaminade’s *Concertino*, Raineri’s work feels like a vibrant conversation between piano traditions and tomorrow’s soundscapes.
