Active also in chamber music, he has collaborated with various ensembles across Europe. His solo career has led him to perform with prestigious orchestras such as the Philharmonie Südwestfalen and with renowned conductors. He was also an Associate Member of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago. His orchestral experience has brought him to work with world-renowned conductors such as Johan De Meij, Markus Stenz, and Duncan Ward, and to perform with distinguished orchestras like the Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale dei Conservatori Italiani, the Miami Music Festival Orchestra, the Moritzburg Festival Orchestra as well as several other international orchestras.

Tiziano has played in numerous high-profile recordings. Among these, the world premiere of the Cello Concerto by Enrique Casals with SONY Classical stands out, as well as the album Saint-Saëns: Cello Concerto, Baccanale & Symphony No.1 with Alpha Classics.
