Guitarist Marius Messerli, Pure Talent

Guitarist Marius Messerli, Pure Talent

A few months ago I have had the honor of meeting Marius Messerli a world class player from Switzerland. Since the very first exchange of emails I could tell Marius is a special soul, deeply sensitive and gentle. His playing is a clear reflection of these amazing human attributes. 

(In the Picture above Marius is playing in Santa Giuliana's Chapel in Umbria, according to Marius, acoustic there is "just perfect")


Marius' technique is excellent and his phrasing and interpretative feeling is second to none. In the next few days I will post videos of this amazing player. His sound is clear, his interpretations are deep and felt and his musicianship is perfect. 

Marius became fascinated with the classical guitar at around the age of five but it was only in his high school years that he adopted the guitar as an important part in his life. For ten years He played itensively every day and enjoyed it beyond the realm of words. In those years Marius was getting acquainted with the guitar literature and was developing his technique gradually.

Marius entered college and pursued biology and spent twenty years running a software company that he founded immediately after completing his Ph.D. These years were completely dedicated to his family and his company. Consequently, Marius could only play the guitar sporadically.   

   

Marius sold his software company in 2010 and as one can imagine, this brought about many changes and one of the most precious gifts of this move was to gain time for the classical guitar.

Once again, Marius started to play the guitar regularly and felt the desire to get to pick up where he had left many years earlier. At present, Marius practicesI 2 hours every day and is enthusiastic about learning new pieces and improving his tone and musical expression. I am honored to be his teacher through mangore.com and he is only a few days away from earning the "mangore.com Achievement Certificate".


Marius plays mostly for himself and his loved ones (the best audience in the world) but he is looking forward to engage with other musicians and eventually also perform on stage. I am looking forward to the day when Marius and I can share a stage here in America, Europe or anywhere.

Marius has two adult children, Linda and Niklaus. Caroline is his soulmate. Besides the classic guitar Marius likes to play tennis and drive classic cars.
