Luciano Berio
Born: 24th October 1925, Oneglia, Imperia, Italy
Died: 27th May 2003, Rome, Italy
Nationality: Italian
Luciano Berio was an Italian composer noted for his experimental work (in particular his 1968 composition Sinfonia and Sequenza, a series of solo pieces for instruments using extended techniques), and for his pioneering work in electronic music. His early work was influenced by Igor Stravinsky and experiments with serial and electronic techniques, while his later works explore indeterminacy and the use of spoken texts as the basic material for composition.
