Simone Gramaglia

A versatile and intellectually curious musician, Simone Gramaglia combines his passion for music, philosophy and literature with an intense activity as a musician (both in chamber music and as a soloist), as a teacher (Walter Stauffer Academy, Bergamo Conservatory) and as an artistic director (Dimore del Quartetto, MusicwithMasters, Filippo Nicosia Award) allowing him to constantly promote musical culture and supporting in particular young people.

Founder member of the Quartetto di Cremona, during his career he has performed in the most prestigious concert halls and venues in the world and has collaborated with influential figures on the international music scene. He plays a 1680 Torazzi viola (Kulturfonds Peter Eckes) and was the first Italian violist to play for a long time the viola "Paganini" by Stradivari (Nippon Music Foundation).
He writes the column “L’Angolo del Quartetto” (Quartet Corner) for Archi Magazine
