Federico Garcia

Composer and conductor Federico Garcia, born in Bogotá (Colombia), based in Pittsburgh since 2001, is Artistic Director of ALIA MUSICA Pittsburgh since its foundation in 2006. He is a lecturer at the music program of Chatham University, and teaches private lessons in piano, composition, and music theory.

His music is atonal but not entirely abstract, and he strives to engage the listener in a joint exploration and discovery of new possibilities, new relationships between sounds. Some of his pieces have received mentions and awards, including first prize in the 5th National Composition Prize in Bogotá in 2001 (for Passacaglia on a theme by Bach).
