Arturo Tallini is a classical guitarist who pursues the incessant exploration of his instrument. This journey has brought him also to create a new instrument: the Scelsitar. In his work, he combines also the sound of the guitar midi, improvisation and electronics.

Many composers have dedicated pieces for him and over the years he has become a reference point for contemporary music even though he never abandoned the classical repertoire.

The international career of Arturo Tallini began in 1987 after winning the first prize in the International Michele Pittaluga Guitar Competition. Two years later in 1989, he won a third prize in the International Radio France Guitar Competition. In 1992 he received a License Superior de Concertiste from Ecole Normale de Musique Alfred Cortot in Paris.

Already in 1984 Tallini began his relationship with contemporary music: he began to explore the possibilities of the guitar as an instrument, to enlarge its sound and instrumental possibilities.

He has been playing concerts as a soloist, in chamber music ensembles and as a soloist for an orchestra in Europe, in the United States and in North Africa.
