Dan Caputo (b. 1991) is a composer of instrumental and electronic works that explore themes of human experience, behavior, cognition, and psychology. His music is further inspired by physical location, with numerous works intended to evoke or be performed in environments outside of the concert hall. Raised in the Pacific Northwest, Caputo is currently pursuing a Doctor of Musical Arts at the University of Southern California and holds a B.M. from USC and an M.Mus. from the University of Texas at Austin. He has studied under composers Ted Hearne, Sean Friar, Donald Crockett, Dan Welcher, Stephen Hartke, Frank Ticheli, Donald Grantham, and Samuel Adler.
