Lucio Tasca

Lucio Tasca is a composer and guitarist born in Palermo, Sicily, and based in Berlin.

He studied at the University of Huddersfield, where he completed a doctorate under Aaron Cassidy and Bryn Harrison. His compositions have been performed by contemporary-music specialists and ensembles internationally, and his guitar work includes collaborations connected with the experimental-music community.
