Darío Tamayo Biography
Born in Granada in 1993, he began his musical training at the age of eight. After studying Piano at the Royal Conservatory of Music in Granada and at the Musikeon-Center for Piano Specialization in Valencia, he moved to Barcelona, where he studied Bachelor’s Degree in Harpsichord with maestro Luca Guglielmi at the Escola Superior de Música de Catalunya (ESMUC). At present, he lives in Geneva (Switzerland), where he is studying for a Master's Degree in Musical Performance - Maestro al cembalo at the Haute école de musique de Genève, with maestro Leonardo García Alarcón.
In the field of early music, he has received lessons from harpsichordists like Darío Moreno, Aarón Zapico, Eduard Martínez Borruel and Eduardo López Banzo, as well as from organists like Juan María Pedrero, Andrés Cea and Óscar Candendo. He has extended his training in the sphere of historically informed performance with important musicians, such as Manfredo Kraemer, Mara Galassi, Lorenzo Coppola, Pedro Memelsdorff, Edoardo Torbianelli, Jean Tubéry, Alexis Kossenko, Pedro Estevan, Marc Hantaï, Xavier Díaz-Latorre, Emilio Moreno or Emmanuel Balssa, among others. Interested in Orchestra Conducting from a very young age, he began studying this discipline at the age of sixteen, pursuing then his training with courses in London and Berlin. Since then, he has received classes and advice from conductors such as Enrique García Asensio, Colin Metters, Bruno Aprea, Miguel Romea, Gabriel Delgado, Michael Thomas, Achim Holub, and Manuel Hernández-Silva, among others.
As a harpsichordist, he usually collaborates with vocal groups —like Numen Ensemble—, as well as with orchestras —such as the Granada Philharmonia Orchestra or the Granada Baroque Orchestra—. As a conductor, he has conducted several orchestral ensembles, such as the Granada Philharmonia Orchestra, León Youth Orchestra, London Classical Soloists or Berlin Sinfonietta; besides, he has conducted some groups specialized in early music, like the Orchestra Frau Musika, Coro del Friuli Venezia-Giulia and Tomás Luis de Victoria Choir. In 2013, he founded the early music group Íliber Ensemble, becoming its Artistic Director and Principal Conductor from then on. Since 2017, he has been the Artistic Director in the staged productions by the Granada Baroque Orchestra. In 2020, he has been selected to participate as a harpsichordist at the Akademie Versailles, organized by the Centre de Musique Baroque de Versailles and Collegium Marianum of Prague, under the baton of maestro Alexis Kossenko. Since 2020, he is Harpsichordist of Continuum XXI, a Spanish-German group specialized in Contemporary Music on historical instruments. In 2021, he participated as harpsichordist and conductor of the Granada Festival Baroque Academy, working hand-in-hand with Carlos Mena. Since 2022, he is Assistant Conductor of the Orchestra Frau Musika of Vicenza (Italy), whose Principal Conductor is Andrea Marcon. As a result of these activities, he has performed concerts in countries like Spain, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Portugal, Czech Republic and China, performing concerts in music halls such as Daning Theatre (Shanghai), L’Auditori (Barcelona), Palau de la Música Catalana (Barcelona), Palau de la Música (Valencia), Ateneo de Madrid, City of León Auditorium or Manuel de Falla Auditorium (Granada), among others. He has made recordings for the Spanish National Television (RTVE) and for the IBS Classical label.
