Ali Hirèche was born in 1976 in Paris, where he started his musical training with the Spanish pianist and composer Antonio Ruiz-Pipó. At fifteen he moved to Italy to continue his studies at the Conservatorio Giuseppe Verdi under Ricardo Risaliti. In 1997 he graduated with top marks and cum laude and enrolled at the Imola International Academy Foundation “Incontri con il Maestro” where he had the opportunity to take part in the master classes of Alexander Lonquich, Andrei Jazinsky and Louis Lortie.
