Alessandro Perin

Alessandro Perin received a Master’s Degree in Organ and Organ Composition from the Pollini Conservatory in Padua, Italy, where he studied with Rino Rizzato.

He also graduated cum laude in Classical Philology at the University of Padua. He studied harpsichord with Roberto Loreggian and received a Master’s Degree in Harpsichord from the Dall’Abaco Conservatory in Verona. He studied at Hochschule für Musik und Theater in Hamburg with Prof. Wolfgang Zerer and Prof. Menno van Delft and received a Master’s Degree in Organ. Then he frequented an advanced course at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis with Prof. Andrea Marcon.
Furthermore, the lessons he received from Italian organist Francesco Finotti were of fundamental importance for his musical growth. Since 2015 he is official organist at the S. Maria Assunta Cathedral in Padua. He became inspired by Jean Guillou, who had a profound influence on his style of playing and approach to the organ. In May 2017 he performed in a concert Guillou’s organ transcription of Stravinsky’s Trois mouvements de Pétrouchka in the presence of the great French organist. He recorded organ works of Gaetano Valeri (Tactus, 2018) and Marcel Dupré (Brilliant Classics, 2021).
