EMILÌANA TORRINI // ALHAMBRA

EMÌLIANA TORRINI

Born in Iceland to an Icelandic mother and an Italian father, Emiliana Torrini joined a choir as a soprano at the age of seven, before enroll in opera school at the age of fifteen.

Discovered in a Reykjavik restaurant by One Little Indian bandleader Derek Birkett, Emiliana then took part in GusGus' debut album, Polydistortion, before moving to London to take part in the writing Slow - for which she was nominated for a Grammy - and Someday on Kyle Minogue's 2003 album Body Language.
By this point, Emiliana had already contributed vocals to Hold Your Hand by Paul Oakenfold and composed three songs on the Thievery Corporation album, The Richest Man In Babylon.

At the same time, a series of stunning solo albums led her to reinterpret part of her catalog with the pop/chamber music collective The Colorist Orchestra, with The Colorist project and Emiliana Torrini in 2016, before Racing The Storm in 2023 established her as one of the industry's most prolific collaborators. while perhaps relying on a slightly larger truth: many of us still yearned for the powerful solitude of his solo recordings.
