Daniel Osorio, born 1971 in Santiago de Chile, studied composition and electroacoustic music with Pablo Aranda at the Universidad de Chile. His graduation project Iax-aus engages with the disappearance of the Yámana and their language and was released in 2004 on the CD “Iax-Aus Káitek”. In 2005 Osorio moved to Saarbrücken, where he completed his postgraduate studies in composition with distinction with Theo Brandmüller and Stefan Litwin at the University of Music Saar. He received a scholarship from the German Study Centre in Venice, the Scholarship of the State Capital of Saarbrücken and the Cultural Award for Music from the Regionalverband Saarbrücken.
