In 1984, when he was 11 years old, his family moved to Buchholz, a small city in Germany nearby Hamburg. There, he learned to know everything related with rock music, played for the first time with some friends and entered this new musical world. He always went on taking piano lessons, but started using the classical techniques for improvising and composing for a band named Alas. With the band, they played a lot in the early nineties in Germany and even in France.

In 1990 they recorded a whole album called Lovemaker in a studio in Hamburg. In that band Claudius played keyboards. However, the curiosity and the compositions he was making, took him to take drum lessons for some time in the music academy of Buchholz and learning a little bit of every instrument he wanted to incorporate in his creations.

In 1994, when he had finished school and the social-year, he left the European ground to go back to South-America, but this time the plane went to Chile. He studied Acoustic Engineering in the Universidad Austral de Chile, created some bands, made his first solo album in the University Recording studio and played with lots of people.
