Born in Modena, he pursued advanced studies with teachers including C. Montafia, M. Marasco, G. Cambursano, M. Hasel, A. Blau and Sir James Galway. A former member of the Gustav Mahler Youth Orchestra under Claudio Abbado, Seiji Ozawa and Pierre Boulez, he was invited to serve as Guest Principal Flute with the Berlin Philharmonic at the age of just 23. He won First Prize at the Kobe International Flute Competition in 2005 and Third Prize at the ARD International Music Competition in Munich in 2004. His concert activity has taken him to major venues such as Carnegie Hall in New York, the Berlin Philharmonie, Wigmore Hall, the KKL Lucerne and the Palau de la Música in Valencia. Andrea Oliva has collaborated with conductors including Claudio Abbado, Lorin Maazel, Kirill Petrenko, Antonio Pappano, Myung-Whun Chung, Manfred Honeck and Bernard Haitink. In 2025 he appeared as soloist in Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante, conducted by Kirill Petrenko in Rome and at Teatro alla Scala in Milan. He is the founder of the Santa Cecilia Wind Quintet and I Cameristi di Santa Cecilia, with whom he performs regularly throughout Europe. He is Professor at the University of Music of the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano and Visiting Professor at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester. His recordings for Hyperion, Sony, Decca, Aulicus Classics and Da Vinci Records have received international acclaim. He is Artistic Director of the “Gabriele Betti” and “Conrad Klemm” International Competitions and, since 2025, a member of the Board of Directors of the Orchestra Sinfonica d’Este in Ferrara.

He has toured in over 50 countries worldwide, performing both as a soloist and with leading international orchestras. In 2011, the Scientific Committee of the Alessandria Convention awarded him the prestigious Chitarra d’Oro for his contribution to the promotion and dissemination of the guitar worldwide. In 2022, he received two further Chitarra d’Oro awards: one for Teaching and one for Best Recording of the Year (Castelnuovo-Tedesco: Complete Chamber Works, Decca). Bandini collaborates with artists of the highest calibre, including Salvatore Accardo, Avi Avital, Massimo Quarta, Andrea Oliva, Enrico Bronzi, Danilo Rossi, Corrado Giuffredi and Marco Pierobon, as well as with actors and performers such as Sergio Rubini, Elio, Monica Guerritore and Amanda Sandrelli.
