Life

Gaspar Cassadó was born in Barcelona on the 30th of September 1897, and it was in that city where he began to study music at the early age of 5. In 1907 he moved to Paris with his father, the musician Joaquim Cassadó. In Paris he met and studied with Pablo Casals. He there studied harmony with Ravel and De Falla. His studies with Casals had a profound effect on him both technically and musically, that marked the rest of his life.
