Osvaldo Noé Golijov (born in La Plata, Argentina, December 5, 1960)  is a Grammy award–winning composer of classical music

Osvaldo Golijov (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈɡolixof]) grew up in La Plata, Argentina ,^[1] in a Jewish family that had emigrated to Argentina in the 1920s from Romania and Russia.^[2][3]

Golijov has developed a rich musical language, the result of a lifetime of experience with various types of music. His Romanian Jewish parents exposed him to the traditional Klezmer music and liturgical music of their faith, growing up and going to public school in Argentina showed him the many musical styles of his family's adopted country, including the tango. Once Golijov traveled abroad to continue his studies, the influences of other people and other styles became part of him. What is considered so remarkable about his musical language is that, rather than a pastiche of styles, it is wholly cohesive. It is thought of as vibrant and alive, growing and changing as he does.^[4]

Golijov's mother was a piano teacher, his father, a physician. He was raised "surrounded by chamber classical music, Jewish liturgical and klezmer music, and the new tango of Ástor Piazzolla," according to his official website. He studied piano at the local conservatory in La Plata and studied composition with Gerardo Gandini.

In 1983, Golijov moved to Israel, where he studied with Mark Kopytman at the Jerusalem Rubin Academy. Three years later, he moved to the United States of America with his wife, Silvia. There he studied with American composer George Crumb at the University of Pennsylvania before receiving his doctorate.^[1]

Golijov has received a MacArthur Fellowship^[1] and other awards. He has been composer-in-residence at the Spoleto USA Festival, in the Los Angeles Philharmonic's Music Alive series, at the Marlboro Music School and Festival, the Ravinia Festival, and several other festivals. He also is co-composer-in-residence (together with the English composer Mark-Anthony Turnage) of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra
