He was the son of a music teacher and grew up in a family that was passionate about music. From a young age, Iannarelli showed a keen interest in music and began playing the piano at the age of six. He was a prodigious talent and quickly developed a deep understanding of music theory and composition. Iannarelli's early musical education was primarily focused on classical music, and he was heavily influenced by the works of Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach. He attended the Conservatory of Santa Cecilia in Rome, where he studied composition under the guidance of renowned composer and conductor, Maestro Azio Corghi. During his time at the conservatory, Iannarelli honed his skills as a composer and developed a unique style that blended classical and contemporary elements. Iannarelli's first major composition was a piano concerto that he wrote when he was just 18 years old. The concerto was well-received by critics and established Iannarelli as a rising star in the world of classical music. He went on to compose a number of other works, including symphonies, chamber music, and operas. One of Iannarelli's most notable works is his opera, "The Last Days of Socrates," which premiered in Rome in 2012. The opera is based on the final days of the Greek philosopher Socrates and explores themes of morality, justice, and the nature of truth. The opera was praised for its innovative use of music and its powerful emotional impact. Another notable work by Iannarelli is his Symphony No. 1, which was premiered in 2014.

The symphony was well-received by audiences and critics alike and cemented Iannarelli's reputation as one of the most promising young composers of his generation. Throughout his career, Iannarelli was known for his innovative approach to composition and his willingness to experiment with different musical styles and techniques. He was particularly interested in exploring the intersection between classical music and contemporary popular music, and many of his works incorporate elements of rock, jazz, and electronic music. Tragically, Iannarelli's promising career was cut short when he passed away in a car accident in 2016 at the age of 29. His death was a great loss to the world of classical music, and he is remembered as a talented and innovative composer who pushed the boundaries of the genre and left a lasting impact on the world of music.
