Roger Pasto Cortina – Music Composer, London

Biography

I was born in Barcelona, and moved to the UK in 1997. I have composed music for theatre, dance, documentaries, fashion, short-films and radio. My main instruments as a performer are guitar and oud, but I feel very comfortable on piano when I compose music. To me, each project is a learning experience, that is why I like composing different styles and genders of music.
