Sagardía was born 1978 in Asunsción, Paraguay. In his compositions, Sagardía deals with the philosophical definition of music, its notation, its performing and expressing values, and its character of being a pure matter of bodyless event. He further combines this artistic approach with different media like film, video, theater, and language.
