Award winning Michael Lucarelli has been performing on stage for 20 years. Michael blends traditional classical guitar repertoire as well as his own compositions. His original compositions are perhaps what sets him aside from most performers. The South Texas Classical Guitar Society writes “his original compositions were especially well received and left a lasting impression.” The Tucson Guitar Society says “his original compositions premiered at this concert were received enthusiastically by the audience with a standing ovation."

Some of his Utah performances have included appearances at Capitol Theatre, Gardner Hall, Peery's Egyptian Theatre, Temple Square Concert Series, Utah State University, BYU, Dixie College, Snow College, and Westminster College. He has performed regularly at the Utah Arts Festival, Helper Arts festival, Brown Bag Concert series, and First Night. During the 2002 Winter Olympics, Michael had the honor of performing for the Athletes at the Olympic Village. He has appeared on several radio and television programs including the TV series "Touched by an Angel". Michael has been on the Utah Performing Arts Tour roster for several seasons, and twice, he was the recipient of an Individual Artist Grant from the Utah Arts Council and the National Endowment of the Arts.

Aside from being critically acclaimed as a solo artist, Michael's six CD's have received enthusiastic reviews world wide.  Classical Guitar Magazine from England writes "Lucarelli gets to the soul of this music and gives a fine interpretation, whetting the appetite... a fine, well performed, thoughtful program from a very engaging player." The Tucson Citizen writes: "In his playing, tone and attack, color and heart are precisely weighted, balanced and applied. He brings skill, taste and passion to a carefully selected, flowing recital disk that invites repeated listening".
