Giovanni Murtula was an erudite guitarist and composer, born in Sassari (Sardinia) and diplomed in jurisprudence. He was one of the few composers and guitarist of the early 20th-century who could well treat the complex forms of a Sonata or a Fugue, but he preferred mainly to compose short works, which are very pleasant and tasteful, but still lacks in them the deepness and sometimes, originality. His most audacious work is the Preludio, Meditazione e rondň, and it could well merit a modern reissue.
