Part of the Segovia Classical Guitar Series
Following his first public performance at the age of eight, Aniello Desiderio quickly established himself as a concert artist with a distinct voice. He has won 18 first place awards, including top prizes at international guitar competitions in Havana and Madrid and First Prize and Special Prize for the best interpretation of Tárrega’s music at the International Francisco Tárrega Competition in Benicàssim, Spain. He performs regularly as a recitalist in the most important theaters of the world, including New York’s Carnegie Hall, Moscow’s Tchaikovsky Concert Hall, Barcelona’s Palau de La Música, and Amsterdam’s Concertgebouw. A frequent soloist with orchestras, Desiderio has performed with the Oregon Symphony, the Istanbul State Symphony Orchestra, and Kremerata Baltica with Gidon Kremer, as well as by invitation from the legendary violinist and conductor Salvatore Accardo to the “Settimane di Musica Internazionali” in Naples, Italy.
