Lorenzo Gusinu: musical journey and artistic identity

Education, influences and vision of a modern guitarist

Lorenzo Gusinu was born on August 14, 1992, in Brescia, Italy.
He began studying electric guitar at the age of 15, approaching it from the start with deep passion and discipline. After his first lessons with guitarist Maurizio Viola, he began his professional journey in 2009 at the Modern Music Institute (MMI) in Gussago, studying under Francesco Fisogni and specializing in rock and metal.

He continued his training with Alex Stornello, president of the MMI, focusing on fusion, and expanded his education through numerous masterclasses, private lessons, and clinics with guitar legends such as Kiko Loureiro, Tony MacAlpine, Michael Angelo Batio, Greg Howe, Steve Vai, and many others.

Today, Lorenzo is recognized as a versatile and virtuosic guitarist, active both as a teacher and performer, with a style that blends advanced technique, melodic taste, and modern sound.
