Marco Gilioli was born in Milan on 19 November 1987. A lifelong music lover, he began his classical studies first with the piano, which accompanied him for over 15 years, and then with the guitar. It is from a strong passion for this instrument that, almost by chance, he approaches the world of lutherie.
He enrolled at the Civica Scuola di Liuteria in Milan, where he graduated in 2011 under the guidance of Lorenzo Lippi, Tiziano Rizzi and Gabriele Negri. During the last year of school he attended the workshop of Maestro Mirko Migliorini, and it was during that period that he developed a real passion for the classical guitar, fascinated by its infinite nuances of timbre and the study of sound.
From that moment on, he began to study in depth the great luthiers of the past, paying particular attention to the Spanish tradition and, in particular, to the man who, perhaps more than anyone else, revolutionised the construction and sound of the classical guitar: Antonio de Torres.
His instruments are made following the traditional method, focusing on the sound and the needs of the guitarist: a sweet, soft and well-balanced tone, with deep basses and ringing cantinas, accompanied by remarkable handling, ease of playing and projection.
Great attention and care are dedicated to the finish and details.
