Alexander Lagoya is a classical music guitarist.
Lagoya was born in Egypt to a Greek father and an Italian mother. By 1955, when he married the French classical guitarist Ida Presti, his career had already begun. Lagoya has performed a variety of works for classical guitar, performing concerts and recording albums, often collaborating with Presti and also with other musicians. Lagoya was also a successful teacher. He taught at the Paris Conservatory, and developed a new method of hand positioning which he believed helped people learn to play the guitar better.
