About Me
Hello to all music enthusiasts! At 35 years old, with over 15 years of experience as a professional musician, I am delighted to meet you. My musical journey is defined by a degree in jazz guitar awarded by the Superior Conservatory of Music of the Basque Country, Musikene, and my participation in the prestigious Focusyear program in Basel. These experiences have enriched my understanding of music and refined my artistic skills.
I have had the privilege of performing on numerous European stages, both as the leader of my jazz and rock bands and as a sideman alongside talented artists. However, my musical commitment does not end there. I have also had the opportunity to release numerous albums, both under my own name and as a collaborator. These albums reflect my artistic diversity and dedication to authentic musical expression.
My musical journey began long before my formal studies. Music has always been my passion, my muse, and my path. I grew up exploring the melodies, rhythms, and harmonies that fill our world, and my guitar became my preferred means of expression. When I joined the Superior Conservatory of Music of the Basque Country, Musikene, it was a crucial step in my musical education. This renowned institution allowed me to refine my technique, develop my theoretical understanding, and immerse myself in a variety of musical styles that enriched my musical language.
Another significant milestone in my journey was my participation in the Focusyear program in Basel. This program of excellence opened doors to an even wider musical universe. I had the opportunity to collaborate with renowned musicians, explore uncharted musical genres, and push the boundaries of my creativity. It was a period of intense artistic growth that profoundly influenced my approach to music and teaching.
As a performing musician, I have had the pleasure of sharing my music with diverse audiences on many European stages. My experience as the leader of jazz and rock groups allowed me to develop my musical identity and refine my style. Playing as a sideman alongside other talented musicians has also been a constant source of inspiration, offering me the opportunity to learn and grow through collaboration.
However, my passion for music extends beyond the stage. Over the past 10 years, I have also embraced the role of a music teacher. Teaching has become another facet of my musical career, and it brings me immense satisfaction. I have worked with a variety of students, from children to adults, from beginners to experienced musicians. Each of my students is a source of inspiration, and I have had the privilege of guiding them on their own musical journeys.
My teaching approach is deeply rooted in the belief that each student is unique. I strive to create a positive and personalized learning environment where your musical preferences, goals, and learning pace are at the center of each lesson. Whether you want to start with the basics of the guitar, perfect your technique, or explore advanced composition concepts, I am here to guide you through every step of your musical journey.
The typical course with me is designed to maximize your progress and enjoyment:
1. We start with a warm discussion to assess your progress since the last lesson. It's also an opportunity to share your recent musical experiences and discuss your challenges or achievements.
2. Next, we review the concepts covered in the previous lesson or the piece you have learned. We focus on resolving any difficulties to ensure a solid understanding.
3. Thirdly, we jointly decide on the new material to work on. You have the freedom to choose a new piece to learn, explore a theoretical concept, or perfect a specific technique.
4. Finally, we dive into learning the new material. Whether we dissect a piece, explore a new technique, or delve into theoretical concepts, each lesson is a unique musical adventure.
I am an eclectic teacher, open to all suggestions. Your voice matters, and I am here to help you realize your musical aspirations. For those passionate about jazz, know that I also offer a highly in-depth exploration of this rich and enchanting style, guiding you through its subtleties.
My promise is to make the learning of music as exciting as possible. My commitment to music and your success is unwavering. Join me in this wonderful musical journey, where each chord is a new discovery, and music becomes an essential part of your life. Together, we will create a symphony of learning, and I would be honored to guide you throughout this journey.
