Upon the first publication of his work in 1907, he moved to Munich to study aesthetics and music theory under Franz Wiedermeyer.
He also studied composition in Leipzig with Max Reger, to whom Taltabull dedicated his Sonatina per a piano (1910).
He was forced to leave Paris during the German invasion of France during World War II.
When Taltabull returned to Barcelona, he was received indifferently and did not find much professional success in Spain under Francisco Franco.
