His musical work moves confidently between classical guitar repertoire, contemporary compositions, and modern fingerstyle concepts. In doing so, he succeeds in uniting diverse musical languages into a highly personal artistic voice.
Boris’ extensive discography reflects this versatility. While the album Les Adieux is rooted in the classical tradition, Tonal Atonal explores modern forms of expression beyond tonal boundaries. Releases such as Exploring the Other Way and Mike Oldfield Re-Scaled demonstrate Tesic’s interest in cross-genre approaches and creative reinterpretation, always characterized by technical clarity and musical refinement.
In addition to his solo work, Boris Tesic is an active chamber musician. Together with soprano Christine Brinkmann, he forms the duo Sjelle, which released the album 4 Songbooks. As a member of the Herkules Guitar Duo with Michael Tröster, he performs dynamic and expressive programs documented on the recording Fun and Passion. He also collaborates regularly with flutist Ming Wang, further expanding his chamber music repertoire.
His musical education began with Predrag Stankovic and later led him to the Royal College of Music in London, as well as to the Conservatorium Maastricht and the Kassel Academy of Music, where he studied with Carlo Marchione, Michael Tröster, and Gary Ryan.
Since 2013, Boris Tesic has been a faculty member at the Kassel Academy of Music “Louis Spohr.” In addition, he contributes regularly as an author to Akustik Gitarre magazine. He is a D’Addario Artist and performs on a guitar built by luthier Boguslaw Teryks.
