Lola Benenati

Pianist & Composer

Portrait of Lola Benenati outdoors against a tree, long red hair, wearing a red top.

Lola Benenati began her musical journey at the age of 8, sparked by her discovery of a composition by Danny Elfman.

This experience was the catalyst that forged her vocation in composing music for cinema.

To nourish this ambition, she undertook piano studies at the conservatoire and then at a jazz school, while exploring the craft of writing and composition for the screen.

Her creations invite us into a captivating universe, revealing melodies and harmonies rich in metaphor.
