In the artist's words:

Luciano Marziali is undoubtedly one of the most creative and imaginative classical guitarists of his generation. For more than twenty years, he has been delighting audiences with a combination of sophisticated classical repertoire and entertaining music, which he always arranges and interprets with artistry and virtuosity.

He performs regularly as a soloist and as a member of various chamber music ensembles throughout Europe and is a guest lecturer at several European master classes. In recognition of his outstanding commitment to the promotion of music, he was awarded the Segovia Prize by the Associazione Chitarra Bergamo in 2009.

Luciano Marziali received his first guitar lessons at the age of 8 and in 1997 he graduated summa cum laude from the Gaetano Donizetti Music Institute in Bergamo with Prof. Giorgio Oltremari. He moved to Germany and two years later completed his postgraduate studies at the Akademie für Tonkunst in Darmstadt under Tilman Hoppstock with the highest marks. In 2004 he completed his artistic diploma at the Musikhochschule, Cologne in the class of Prof. Hubert Käppel with "very good" and in 2006 he completed his musical education with the concert exam and the instrumental pedagogical diploma under the supervision of Prof. Roberto Aussel. He took part in master classes with various world-famous guitarists, including D. Russell, A. Gilardino, C. Marchione and D. Bogdanovic, who have described him as one of the best Italian guitarists of his generation due to his perfect technique and interpretative depth. Luciano Marziali has won several prizes at prestigious international guitar competitions, including De Bonis and Paganini (Italy) and Pfingsseminar Koblenz (Germany). Several of Marziali's CD recordings have been released by the labels GuitArt and KSG Exaudio. In 2009 he founded the guitar duo Kassung-Marziali with Tobias Kassung in the Cologne Classical Ensemble.
