Biography
Camacho was born in the city of Funchal, Madeira, and started learning composition with Argentinean composer Roberto Pérez in his home city's Conservatoire and Arts School.
After three years, Camacho moved to Lisbon, where he continued his studies in the National Conservatoire for another four years with composer and teacher Eurico Carrapatoso. Under his guidance, Camacho received an A+ classification every year, becoming the only student ever to achieve this score.
As a pianist, Camacho started with teacher and musicologist, Robert Andres, and then with the Portuguese teacher, Melina Rebelo. He got an A in the final exam in Lisbon. Camacho was one of the very few students to finish the eight years' learning program in four years' time.
Camacho claims that composing has been an important part of his life since he was ten years old, when he started composing short musical pieces using the vintage tracker program OctaMED on an Amiga 500.
Side by side with this classical learning process, Camacho started learning Jazz Theory, Composition and Piano with the pianist Jorge Borges and, more recently, in the Portuguese Jazz School, Hot Clube Portugal.
Camacho's career in concert music only began in 2011, when he was commissioned to write the Requiem to Inês de Castro by Orquestra Clássica do Centro which was premiered on March 28, 2012. In this concert Camacho's composition teacher, Eurico Carrapatoso, also adapted one of his works to serve as opening to the Requiem.
The world premiere was a huge success and, later that year, Camacho's Requiem, dedicated to Eurico Carrapatoso, was selected as the main work for the world's first digital concert with an orchestra and choir, sponsored by Samsung.
