Praised as one of the most active and brilliant soloists from his generation (Acervo Digital do Violão
Brasileiro) by the specialized press and one of the greatest talents of the Brazilian guitar today (O
Tempo), Octávio Deluchi had his solo debut at Carnegie Hall at the age of 24 and has more than

between performances, premieres, and commissions, such as Emmanuele Baldini, Tania Leon,

composers, Latin American music, and 19th-century repertoire. He tours frequently in Brazil and
