Loris Mittaz grew up in the Valais mountains, in the village of Chermignon. At the age of 8, he learned that an illness would gradually take away his sight. His disability forced him to give up many of his favorite activities.
It was then that he discovered a deep passion for music and the piano. He developed a special connection with the instrument, which became both a creative outlet and a powerful tool for resilience, allowing him to rise above his challenges.
Both his journey and his music are a tribute to perseverance — a heartfelt invitation to share in an authentic and moving experience.
Classically trained (EJMA), Loris has been performing in various projects since the age of 15. Musically curious, he has explored a wide range of genres and collaborations, from rap (Oxmo Puccino, Moodjo) and electronic music (Feder, Marieposa) to psychedelic rock (The Doors Revival) and pop (Mia Oud).
At the same time, he began composing and launched his own solo project. He was quickly noticed and made his solo debut on prominent stages (Crans-Montana Classics, Montreux Autumn Festival) in 2022.
Blending classical, jazz, and contemporary music, his sound is a melodic, deep, and colorful journey. Loris invites listeners to join him — to close their eyes and imagine their own story inspired by the music.
