Arturo Stalteri

Pianist and composer (b. 1959) ex-Pierrot Lunaire musician who has released a string of solo works that range from organ and piano-based serialist music and minimal works to progrock-influenced stuff and Electronic Music. After the 70s, Arturo Stàlteri started concentrating more and more on the piano, while electronics and other instruments took a back seat. Of note are his collaboration with Philip Glass on Circles and his adaptations of Brian Eno works.

Pierrot Lunaire
** Limited edition Yellow vinyl 180 gr. numbered edition ** Stunning 1974 debut album by Pierrot Lunaire full of fantasy in the real sense of the word: sense of wonder, a feeling of journeying through worlds and states of imagination, playful experimentation, and melody above all. An overlooked gem.

* 180 Gr. Vinyl Transparent Red Vinyl. Numbered Edition* Along with the likes of Franco Battiato, Opus Avantra and Piccho dal Pozzo, Pierrot Lunaire were one of the artists that contributed to the small, but artistically significant, avant progressive scene of Italy in the mid-70s. The second album of Pierrot Lunaire of 1977, long out of print, is finally reissued! One of the most important Italian electronic progressive, formed in Rome in the early '70s by Arturo Stalteri and Gaio Chiocchio, th…
CoolAugustMoon
**2021 stock** Italian pianist Arturo Stàlteri's Cool August Moon is an album based on Brian Eno's music. Stàlteri (helped by Arlo Bigazzi on some tracks) rearranged Eno's compositions to make a work of his own. The Italian musician imposed his conception of the music over Eno's original pieces. For this project, he played accompanied by a chamber orchestra, putting aside most electric instruments appearing on Eno's pieces. And, although the tunes he covers are from different albums, Cool August…
Syriarise
**2021 stock** With Materiali Sonori Arturo Stalteri released the CD “Syriarise," a work combining two different artistic approaches: an electronic suite with minimalist and ethnic influences and a section dedicated to the piano. This was the first in a long series of projects with the Tuscan record label, which considers Stalteri as one of its most representative artists.
Andre sulla luna
* Edition of 500, remastered * The mastermind behind the sublime Italian cosmic rock group Pierrot Lunaire, Arturo Stalteri's work both within Pierrot Lunaire and here on his solo debut (1979) occupies a perch in that rarified strata of Italian kosmiche godhead that also includes Franco Battiato, Franco Leprino, St. Tropez, Luciano Cilio and a mere handful of others. Absent the contributions that Gaio Chiocchio or vocalist Jacqueline Darby brought to bear in Pierrot Lunaire, keyboardist Stalteri…
From Ajanta to Lhasa
* 100 Copies in red vinyl, few available * Over the last few years, the Milan based imprint, Soave, has taken great strides toward illuminating Italy’s historically singular movement of musical minimalism.

...E Il Pavone Parlo' Alla Luna
Limited clear vinyl, edition of 100. Originally released in 1980 (and privately issued only in 1987) Arturo Stalteri’s …E Il Pavone Parlo’ Alla Luna falls among the last artifacts of Italy’s great wave of musical Minimalism. Like the movement to which it belongs, rigorously resistant to categorizations and definition, this overlooked marvel sculpts a startling singularity.  A radical and democratic vision in sound, blending elements of New Age, the avant-garde, and Prog, with Western and I…
