About Me

Harp teacher by the Bilbao´s conservatory, I came to be part of the "Andrés Isasi" Chamber Orchestra of Bilbao, Murcia Young Orchestra, "Orquesta Clásica de Vigo", Galician Symphonic Orchestra and Gijón Symphonic Orchestra as principal harpist. With some of these orchestras I took part in recordings for TVE and RNE Radio 2. With the celtic harp, I collaborated in the organization of the 1st. National Celtic Harp Congress, celebrated in Gijón, Asturias, Spain, and I also participated in Ortigueira (Galicia) and Avilés Interceltic Festivals.

Nowadays, I´m focused on teaching celtic and pedal harp in "La Quintana" Traditional Music School in Gijón, Asturias, Spain.
