The beginning
When I was a child, I saw a violinist playing and I told my parents that I would have started studying music only if they let me learn how to play that instrument, and that was it.
Since then, I’ve never abandoned music, the ‘cross and delight’ of my life.
Arrangements
I learnt the art of DIY early on because I wanted to play songs or pieces of music that could not be found commercially written for formations considered purely classical such as quartets or string trios. Thus, one of my great passions was born: creating arrangements and transcriptions.
Genres?
I have always been annoyed by labels and watertight compartments: music, whatever genre you want to relegate it to or distinguish it from, is a universal language that makes our emotional chords vibrate. That is why I love collaborating with different artistic realities.
