Tito Rinesi began his musical activity in 1968 by playing the american West coast and folk music with his harmonica and acoustic guitar (he also performed at Giancarlo Cesaroni’s renowned Folkstudio in Rome, where Bob Dylan himself once held a live concert).

In 1972 he performed with the Living Music, a multi-media band inspired by the Beat Generation poets (Ginsberg, Kerouac, Fernanda Pivano) and by the Indian philosophy. Singing his composition "Go on" with this band, he won first prize in the Avantgarde and New Trends Music Festival in Rome.

In 1973 his encounter with the Project Artaud artists in San Francisco put him in contact with the hippy and psychedelic movement, and the meeting in Rome with the indian singer Pandit Pran Nath (teacher of Terry Riley, LaMonte Young, Jon Hassell, Don Cherry, Lee Konitz) left a lasting mark on his opening and creativity.

In 1974 he joined the progressive rock band Saintjust and recorded an LP "La casa del lago" published by EMI Corporation (the female singer was Jenny Sorrenti).

In 1976, as the band stopped playing, he continued researching and studying traditional musical systems all over the world, with a special interest for India,  Middle East and the Mediterranean basin; and started to compose several soundtracks for the screen, the stage, radio and TV, combining elements ( scales, sounds, rhythmic and melodic structures ) originating from various cultural traditions, leading Western and Eastern worlds to live together and North and South to get closer.

From 1988 on, he began recording again his music on CD, inspired by the eastern ethnical instruments  (mainly bouzouki, saz and harmonium).
