An underground contemporary classical artist.
Luís Neto da Costa is a Portuguese composer dedicated to broadening instrumental vocabulary and developing techniques based on the harmonic series.

His compositions have been performed by ensembles including Vertixe Sonora, Ensemble Recherche, Remix Ensemble, Porto Symphony Orchestra, and Lisbon Metropolitan Orchestra, among others. He has received commissions from Casa da Música, MISO Music, Festival delle Nazioni, and Antena 2, and has collaborated with musicians including Dejana Sekulić, Alex Waite, and Henrique Portovedo on extended techniques. He has received nine composition awards, including the Francisco de Lacerda Composer Prize by Millennium bcp Foundation. He is currently a Ph.D. candidate at Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, supported by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology, focusing on harmonic series techniques and computer-aided composition. He holds degrees from ESMAE (Porto), the University of Aveiro, and ESML (Lisbon).
