He began with the violin but later devoted himself to the guitar, becoming known as a virtuoso performer.
Gragnani first published works for guitar and chamber music in Milan around the beginning of the 19th century with the publishers Ricordi and Monzino.
During these times he travelled to Germany and settled in Paris by 1810, a center of performance and music publishing. There he befriended and became a pupil of Ferdinando Carulli, another Italian virtuoso.[2] Gragnani dedicated three of his guitar duets to him,[3] and in turn Carulli dedicated some duets to Gragnani.[4]
Little is known about Gragnani after 1812.
