Pablo Carrascosa Llopis (Valencia, 1979) graduated in composition at ESMUC and in architecture at ETSAV. During 2019/2020, he was guest composer at L’Auditori Barcelona. As part of this residency, he was commissioned to write an orchestral work for the Orquestra Simfònica de Barcelona i Nacional de Catalunya (OBC), a piece for two ensembles with electronics, and a pedagogical project developed in collaboration with the Departament d’Ensenyament de L’Auditori and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB).

Alongside composition, he performs as a live-electronics/modular synth artist and has recently released several experimental techno tracks, expanding the boundaries of the genre through his distinctive musical perspective.

From 2019 to 2025, Carrascosa has been artistic director of the contemporary music ensemble CrossingLines, one of Spain’s leading groups in the field. Under his direction, the ensemble has played a pivotal role in developing contemporary music both nationally and internationally, with upcoming projects integrating his singular musical and scenic vision. Currently, Pablo is the artistic director of the new music collective A/B Ensemble, a new project involving renowned musicians from the European scene, exploring the idea of programming through strongly cohesive proposals in which meta-composition plays a fundamental role.

Carrascosa is also a regular collaborator in contemporary dance. He has been a three-time finalist at the Barcelona Premis de l’Institut del Teatre, winning first prize in 2017 with Handle With Care (premiered at Festival Grec the same year) and second prize in 2018 with The Milk. In the field of audiovisual music, he received the Jerry Goldsmith Award in 2015 for Best Score for Animated Short Film.

Pablo is professor at Taller de Músics ESEM and at ESMUC, where he combines teaching with pedagogical research. He has been a continuous participant in Els compositors entren a l’aula since 2015–2016, a project run in collaboration with UAB and L’Auditori de Barcelona’s educational program.

His music explores rhythm, musical objects, and form through an architectural lens. It highlights the relationship between concept and abstraction, structure and perception, while drawing strong influence from Extreme Metal and Techno.
