Raised in a family of artists, Sergio’s musical path began under the guidance of his great-aunt Elsa, who introduced him to Bach and Chopin when he was eleven. 

Though classically trained, his artistic trajectory shifted during his university years, when discovering musicians like Nils Frahm, Max Richter, and Yann Tiersen opened a new horizon and quietly nudged him toward composition. Later came Sufjan Stevens and Keaton Henson, whose work carried a tenderness and vulnerability that reshaped his understanding of what a piece of music could hold.

In 2015, Sergio self-released his first album, Unsaid Words. Its yearning arpeggios, evocative melodies and mastery of mood announced his arrival quietly but clearly. Pieces like Serendipity and Calmness revealed his ability to weave neoclassical composition with found sounds, while the mournful cello of Nature nodded gently to 19th-century chamber music.

He went on to release three EPs: December 03 (2016), recorded in a single afternoon; The Morning is a River(2017), created with German visual artist Seraphina Theresa and accompanied by slow-moving images, a photo series, and a poem on a limited cassette edition; and Postcards (2020), a contemplative reflection on solitude influenced by the spirit of Chopin and released as a 7-inch vinyl.

By 2023, Sergio had accumulated over thirty million streams, performed concerts throughout Europe and South America, and built collaborations with Deutsche Grammophon, 7K!, and Leiter Verlag. On March 10 of that year, he released his second full-length album, Muerte en una tarde de verano, via Nettwerk Music Group. The album was accompanied by a forty-minute film, two handcrafted vinyl editions, an exclusive Japanese CD, and a European tour.

Since his debut, Sergio has moved from Peru to Spain and now Germany, finding along the way a quiet home in ambient music. The works of Haruomi Hosono and Hiroshi Yoshimura have been especially influential, shaping the soft, minimal atmosphere present in his recent compositions.
