Eclectic and Versatile Cellist
Artist · Cultural Producer · Festival Director
I am a Spanish cellist, artist, cultural producer and festival director based in Rotterdam.
My work moves across performance, artistic research, cultural programming and international collaboration. Drawing from a background in classical music, jazz, flamenco and world music, I create projects that connect artistic excellence with cultural exchange, education and community engagement.
My academic journey has taken me across Europe: I studied Music Education and Musicology in Spain, completed a Bachelor in Jazz and a Master in World Music at Codarts University of the Arts in Rotterdam, and I am currently pursuing a PhD in Artistic Education at the University of Lisbon, where I am developing a methodology for the harmonic cello.
As a performer, I have collaborated with renowned artists from the worlds of flamenco, jazz and contemporary music, performing in concert halls, theatres, festivals and recording studios internationally.
Alongside my artistic career, I have developed a strong practice in cultural production and artistic direction. I am the director of Rotterdam Flamenco Festival and curator of Flamenco Sundays Rotterdam, initiatives that create spaces for artistic exchange, education and community participation. Through these platforms, I bring together artists, audiences and cultural institutions, fostering meaningful connections through music and live performance.
Today, my work brings together artistic creation, research, education and cultural leadership, building bridges between communities, disciplines and traditions.
