He continued his studies at the Conservatory of Santa Cecilia in Rome, where he studied under some of the most prominent composers of the time. After completing his studies, Manlio began to focus on composing his own music. He was heavily influenced by the works of Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven, and his compositions reflected their classical style. His early works were well-received, and he quickly gained a reputation as a talented composer. In the 1950s, Manlio began to experiment with new musical forms and techniques.

In addition to his work as a composer, Manlio was also a respected conductor and music educator. He conducted orchestras throughout Europe and taught composition at several universities.
