== Biography ==
Born in Viana do Castelo, Portugal in 1939, Cândido Lima is a Portuguese composer, known for his work in electroacoustic and computer music (he is considered to be the first Portuguese composer to explore these fields and to combine them with an orchestra), but as a teacher and researcher, as a writer and as a radio and TV director.

He began his musical studies first in Braga (Piano and Composition), and then in the Porto and Lisbon Conservatories. Later, he also obtained a degree in Philosophy in Braga and a PhD in Aesthetics from the University of Paris with a dissertation on “Identity and Alterity in Musical Composition”. Along the way he also attended courses with figures such as Karlheinz Stockhausen, Iannis Xenakis and Gérard Frémy, along with electronic and computer music courses at the University of Vincennes, University of Panthéon-Sorbonne, CEMAMu and IRCAM.

During the Salazar period Cândido Lima completed his military service in Bolama Island, Guinea-Bissau, to where he managed to take a piano in order to continue composing and performing. There he taught music to local youths and composed some of the songs which were later performed in Portugal and included in the 2000 book “Canções para a juventude: Canto e Piano” (“Songs for Youth: Choir and Piano”). Afterwards he taught in and directed the Porto and Braga Music Conservatories.

In 1973 he founded, with Miguel Graça Moura the “Grupo Música Nova” (New Music Group), which sought to present work from Portuguese and classic composers in concerts, radio and TV, and after the 1974 revolution he became active in television and radio, creating series such as “Sons e Mitos”, “Fronteiras da Música”, “No Ventre da Música”, where he presented music from modernist and avant-garde composers such as Arnold Schoenberg, Iannis Xenakis, John Cage and Karlheinz Stockhausen.

As a composer, he has written pieces for orchestras and smaller groups, and a myriad instruments from the classical to the new (electroacoustics and computers, which he pioneered in Portugal, such as in “Oceanos”). Some of these works have also integrated audiovisual components.
