Writing the bio of a young and talented multi-instrumentalist who started writing music in his childhood is a hard task, especially when his compositions are something so personal and important for his development as a human and artist, so I will mention some historical facts that are insufficient to describe the person being behind the music.

CHALCEDONY is obsessed with the piano since his childhood, early in his life he wrote The Fantasy Sonata, at the age of 11 or 12, he started to play drums and later formed a band called CONFUSION with his brother with whom he started playing at school.

In 2006 and after his band split, CHALCEDONY centered his efforts in writing Chapter One, which he finished in 2007, since then he has released 4 albums, two of them classical (Chalcedony - Elements and Butterflies, both from 2010) and the other two (Chapter One in 2007 and Chapter II in 2011) absolutely Progressive with a unique style that blends sounds, genres and moods with good taste and skills.

So I recommend people to focus in his albums rather than in this bio, because CHALCEDONY'S compositions describe better the person and the musician than cold words.
