Christopher Paul Lantz
In 1936, Christopher Lantz was born in Santa Fe’s La Fonda Hotel where his parents were both artists in residence. As a child, he grew up in such varied environs as Santa Fe, Guadalajara Mexico, and the streets of New York City and undergraduate school at Bard College, New York. During his unusual childhood, he came in contact with many artists, including the poet Witter Bynner, Frida Kohlo, and even made a habit of stopping in for coffee in Jackson Pollock’s studio.
As a young man, Christopher was more interested in music. He composed his first symphony at the age of 16, which was later preformed for Igor Stravinsky when Christopher was 19 and studying under Milton Babbitt. By the time he was 23, he had conducted his own symphonies with the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra .
He currently holds a Doctor of Musical Arts and a PhD in Acoustical Physics from Stanford University. He has composed and conducted both his own and others’ contemporary and classical music in the U.S. and Europe.
