Her music, inspired by nature, art and spirituality, has reached audiences worldwide with over a billion streams and regular features on BBC Radio 3 and 6 Music, Classic FM, KEXP, Pitchfork and Radio France.

Belli has performed at legendary venues and events including the Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Royal Albert Hall’s Elgar Room, BST Hyde Park with Andrea Bocelli, Montréal International Jazz Festival and Schloss Elmau.

Belli regularly composes for and collaborates with the likes of Jess Gillam, Anna Lapwood and Mari Samuelsen.
