Matías Fernández Rosales
Matías began his musical journey playing the saxophone and electric bass in various jazz, ska, and punk ensembles. These musical genres continue to reflect the energy and interest in rhythmical textures that set his music apart. He studied with Cristian Morales at UC in Chile, where he earned a bachelor's degree in music composition. Later, he completed a Master's degree in instrumental and vocal composition at CNSMD Lyon, studying composition under Philippe Hurel.
Currently, he is pursuing a Doctorate in music composition through a Franco-German program involving the University of Strasbourg, Haute Ecole du Rhin, and Hochschule für Musik Freiburg. Under the guidance of Daniel D'Adamo and Moreno Andreatta, his research focuses on formal models in composition – approaches characterized by information saturation and the abundance of data generated by computer systems.
His repertoire encompasses orchestral music, chamber music, solo works, electronic and mixed compositions, featuring real-time interactive videos and lighting. A portion of his work is published by Note En Bulle Éditions, and he has released a monographic album titled "Musicas Extremas" in digital and cassette formats through the Sello Modular label.
