Who I am
When I try to describe myself, it usually happens that I talk about who I am as a musician, so I’ll begin from there.
I was around 4 years old and I loved making noises with anything that could produce a sound: cutlery from the kitchen, my grandfather’s tools, the toys which I played with… Furthermore, I could spend hours and hours singing without getting tired. My parents knew that there was something special behind it and they decided to enroll me in the music school of my hometown, Aranjuez.
After 2 years learning music theory, I had to choose an instrument. That was a difficult choice because there were no musicians in my family and I barely had an idea of what instruments existed, so I wrote a list with the only 4 instruments that I knew: piano, violin, saxophone and flute. As you can tell, violin was the chosen one and that is how everything started.
What I've studied
I began my violin journey with Elena Eriutina at the Aranjuez Music School and later continued at the Conservatory of Music and Dance Victoria de los Ángeles in Madrid, where I discovered my love for playing with other musicians. My teacher Sergio Castro encouraged me to pursue a Bachelor’s in Classical Music at the Conservatory of Music of Aragón in Zaragoza. There, surrounded by talented peers and inspiring teachers, I deepened both my musical and personal growth. Though I always enjoyed playing the violin, it was thanks to Juan Luis Gallego that I truly learned to love it and to appreciate the privilege of dedicating my life to music. My passion and drive led me to pursue a Master’s in Classical Music at ArtEZ University of the Arts in the Netherlands with Professor Sarah Kapustin. Living and performing in the Netherlands made me realize how much I thrive as an active musician, participating in diverse projects and performances. No matter where I am in the world, as long as I can play and share music, I feel at home.
