A native of the Cleveland area, Lorenzo is of Honduran and Puerto Rican descent, and he talks with CoolCleveland’s Thomas Mulready about how his cultural heritage and his background as a singer inform his conducting.

"I have worked with many young conductors... Lorenzo is, by far, the most talented and, simply the best... he is inherently musically talented, and at a high level. Still, he is constantly and incessantly hungry for more – for more experience, more music, more knowledge, [and] more challenges."
