About Me

I'm a Spanish cellist that studied my Masters Degree and a Postgraduate in Ghent (Belgium) and I currently combine teaching with regular freelance work in different orchestras and ensembles, such as Opera Ballet Vlaanderen or Orquestra Ciutat de Barcelona i Nacional de Catalunya.

I base myself on the teachings received from my teachers during all my years of study, in which I have always been especially interested in the importance of the figure of the teacher for the healthy development of students. I adapt to the technical and musical needs of each student, even if we start from 0, without prior musical knowledge.

Education

-Postgraduate in Musical Performance Practice with Judith Ermert at the KASK-Conservatorium of the School of Arts in Gent.

-Masters Degree in Music with Judith Ermert at the KASK-Conservatorium of the School of Arts in Gent.

-I received my Bachelor Degree with Honor Mention at the Superior Conservatory of Music "Joaquín Rodrigo" of València, Spain.

-I coursed my Professional Degree at the Professional Conservatory of Music "Mestre Vert" of Carcaixent, where I received the Professional Music Award.

-I have received advice from renowned soloists and pedagogues such as Gautier Capuçon, Voro Bolón, Enrico Dindo, Peter Bruns, Tilmann, Wick, Troëls Svane, Sun Won-Yang or Asier Polo. In addition, I've been been a regular student of the great pedagogue María Casado.

Experience / Qualifications

I would like to express my sincere appreciation and gratitude for the fantastic experience during my first private cello lesson. Javier's dedication, passion and expertise have left a deep impression on me. Javiers' ability to convey complex musical concepts clearly and comprehensibly made the lesson not only educational but also extremely inspiring. Javiers' patience and encouragement have boosted my confidence and encouraged me to continue my musical journey. It is clear that Javier is not only an excellent musician, but also an exceptional teacher. Javiers' dedication to nurturing the talent of his students is admirable.

My 10-year-old son really enjoys lessons with Javier. Javier has a good hand with children and can motivate them well. Really great. Online lessons also work very well.

I have been playing and studying the cello for almost a lifetime and I can assure you that it is one of the most wonderful things that can be done. Even if it costs! I can teach both beginners or amateurs who want to improve their level, as well as advanced students who want to perfect their work. Also, if you are someone who is considering starting with this instrument, do not hesitate! We will work on all aspects of the execution: the technique of both hands, posture, relaxation, musical expressiveness ...
I've spent my whole life practicing and playing the cello, and I can assure you it's one of the most wonderful things you can do. Even if it's hard! I teach classes for both beginners and amateurs looking to improve their playing, as well as for advanced students looking to perfect their skills. Also, if you're thinking about taking up this instrument, don't hesitate! I also prepare students for entrance exams for both vocational and higher education. I base my work on the lessons I've learned from my teachers throughout my years of study, during which I've always been particularly interested in the importance of the teacher in the healthy development of students.
