"He sweeps away the audience with enthusiasm as the great virtuosi, Paganini, Regondi or Giuliani of the 19th century did" wrote the Stuttgarter Zeitung about Aniello Desiderio. The Italian born regularly performs as a soloist with orchestras in the most important opera theatres in North and South Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Recent appearances included performances with the Bavarian Chamber Orchestra and Romulo Larrea (Bandoneon) Tango con Passion in Germany and with the Istanbul State Symphony Orchestra in Turkey.

Aniello Desiderio who has been called a "wunderkind" since his first public performance at the age of eight, has won 18 first awards in both national and international competitions such as the International Guitar Competition in Havana, Cuba, in 1988 or the International Francisco Tarrega Competition, Benicasim, Spain, in 1992. In 1999, the German Television BR/ARD produced a music film and a portrait of him in Naples, that was broadcast throughout Europe. In 2017 he created his latest record "Nocturnal" for Accelerando Music Production in Germany. In high demand as a teacher, he's a professor at University of Music in Potenza, Italy.
