Italian progressive/jazz-rock group from Turin, formed in the mid-1970s and known for albums such as Giro di valzer per domani and Tilt.

Members mentioned in DeBaser reviews include Gigi Venegoni (guitar), Furio Chirico (drums, also referenced as Furio De Chirico), Beppe Crovella (keyboards), Marco Gallesi (bass); violin contributions by Giovanni Vigliar and texts by Gianfranco Gaza are cited. The band is associated with the Parco Lambro '74 scene and is described in reviews as part of the 1970s Italian progressive/jazz-rock movement. Reviews quote praise attributed to Bill Bruford and Brian Auger.

DeBaser contains two appreciative reviews of Arti e Mestieri highlighting their 1970s progressive/jazz-rock work. Reviewers praise the musicianship (especially drums, guitar, keyboards) and the albums Giro di valzer per domani and Tilt. The coverage frames the band as a cult/prog-jazz act from Turin with both instrumental virtuosity and political engagement.

For:Fans and collectors of 1970s Italian progressive rock and jazz-rock; listeners of instrumental, experimental fusion.
