Arturo Stalteri

Pianist and composer Arturo Stàlteri draws on an exceptionally wide range of influences, from minimalism to Romantic music, film music, the writings of J.R.R. Tolkien, The Rolling Stones, and more. He is also a radio broadcaster. In 1974, Stàlteri and multi-instrumentalist Gaio Chiocchio founded the progressive rock band Pierrot Lunaire, with which he released several albums. In 1998, he released the album Circles, featuring music by Philip Glass. An admirer of The Rolling Stones, Stàlteri recorded his own version of Ruby Tuesday, included as a bonus track on his 2007 album Child of the Moon: Dieci Notturni e un'Alba. In 2023, Stàlteri returned on recordings with the album Dodecagon, featuring music by Glass.
