Llorenç Balsach i Peig was born in Sabadell (Barcelona) in 1953 and studied music with J.Poch, C.Guinovart and J.Soler in Barcelona. He has received commissions from Radio Baden-Baden Orchestra, Vallès Symphonic Orchestra, Catalonian Composers'Association, Spanish Ministry of Culture, National Radio of Spain and the Councils of Barcelona and Sabadell among others.
He writes instrumental and vocal music in which the component of a kind of reptile melodies play a significative role under a certain ironic harmony. He has investigated the inner relations between harmonic successions and tension-relax impressions, reflected in his book: Harmonic Convergence and in a recent article in JNMR (Journal of New Music Research).
