The Boston Classical Guitar Society proudly presents Italian classical guitar virtuoso Aniello Desiderio on Friday, Feb. 10 in Boston's Back Bay.
Aniello Desiderio is a wildly gifted musician and one of the strongest interpretive voices on the instrument. He has been praised by celebrated artists Chick Corea and John McLaughlin. He is uncommonly adept at moving from classic masterpieces to modern repertoire and we can’t wait to hear him in his debut recital for the BCGS.
Born in Naples, Italy, in 1971, Aniello began to perform at eight years old, and quickly garnered acclaim at concerts and competitions. He attended classes with Leo Brouwer and graduated from Conservatorio Antonio Vivaldi in Alessandria.
Since beginning his international career in 1989, Aniello Desiderio has toured extensively as soloist and chamber musician,
leaving critics and audiences in awe. He was a featured artist at Lorin Maazel’s 70th birthday celebration. In 2009, he performed with the Quebec Symphony Orchestra in Canada and toured Europe. In 2010, Aniello appeared with Angel Romero, playing Rodrigo’s Concerto Madrigal, and gave masterclasses at the Mozarteum of Salzburg. In 2014 he toured America, and made his debut at New York’s Carnegie Hall.
Aniello Desiderio’s recordings include music from Tarrega, Paganini, Aguado, Llobet, Jose, Brouwer, Dyens, and Ginastera. Aniello is Professor at S. Giacomantonio University of Music in Cosenza Italy.
