Présentation

I'm a Spanish international concert pianist ,I gained expertise as a pedagogue in tertiary institutions, acting as a mentor, role model and sometimes inspiration for those aspiring to both solo and ensemble careers, but also to wider the horizons of those just wishing to learn more about pianism as an enrichment to their knowledge of music.

In lessons, my penchant for fine detail and nuance may lead to in-depth discussions and demonstrations of such matters as flexibility and shaping of phrasing, precision of rhythm and articulation, expansion of dynamic and coloristic range, a refined and sophisticated pedal technique or exploring a range of alternative and unorthodox fingerings.

At the same time, I endeavour to engage my student’s curiosity and intelligence by integrating the discussion of pianistic issues with underlying compositional issues, such as voice-leading, counterpoint, harmonic outlines and motivic development.

Once technical issues are solved and pose no impediment to fluency and the flight of a student’s musical imagination, I welcome the opportunity to delve into the deeper – intellectual, emotional, and spiritual – dimensions of music during the learning process.

I offer:

- Preparation for auditions
- Preparation for graduation exams (Bachelor/Master)
- Preparation for national/international competitions - all categories
- Consultations for young piano teachers
