Cláudio Venturini (Luís Cláudio Venturini, born in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, 14 August 1958) is a Brazilian guitarist, vocalist and composer.

With his younger brother Flávio Venturini, he began his career taking part in the album A Via Láctea[1] of the friend Lô Borges in 1978. One year later he was co-founder of the band 14 Bis, formerly besides his brother Flávio and where he persists nowadays.
