Giulia Nuti was born in Cambridge and raised in Florence. She has lived and worked throughout her career between Italy and the United Kingdom.

Her solo recordings have received numerous awards, including the Diapason d’Or and the Preis der Deutschen Schallplattenkritik, and have been acclaimed by both music lovers and scholars:

«We pay tribute to her impeccable virtuosity, the clarity of her voice-leading, and an inventiveness in nuance and atmosphere that inspires wonder.» (Diapason)

«The performer reveals to us a vanished sound world… making us feel in touch with another civilisation.» (The Guardian)

«With this recording, Giulia Nuti definitively enters the select pantheon of the finest harpsichordists, delivering a performance distinguished by a striking and unmistakable artistic personality.» (Musica)

Giulia has also published numerous essays on basso continuo, improvisation and accompaniment. Her book The Performance of Italian Basso Continuo (Ashgate, 2007) is widely regarded as an essential reference for both performers and scholars.

She regularly gives masterclasses and seminars throughout Europe, including at the Royal College of Music (London), the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, the University of Cambridge, the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana (Lugano) and the Universität der Künste Berlin. Since 2024, she has been Universitätsprofessorin für Cembalo und Historische Aufführungspraxis (Professor of Harpsichord and Historical Performance Practice) at the Gustav Mahler Private University for Music in Klagenfurt, Austria.
