ABOUT ME

Born in Madrid in 1971, studied Art History at Madrid’s Universidad Complutense, and singing in London with Jessica Cash and Evelyn Tubb. She also studied voice in Milán (Margaret Hayward) and Madrid (Peter Harrison and Esperanza Abad).

Interested in Early Music, she had lessons with some of the most prestigious specialist in that subject (Emma Kirkby, Anthony Rooley, Ricard Egarr…) and did concerts on Early Music since the medieval to the romanticism with many ensembles.

Her interdisciplinary training covers early dance (Madeleine Inglehearn, Hellga Hill…), choir conducting (Alberto Grau, Jose Antonio Sainz-Alfaro), Kodaly method (Esztergòm University) musical pedagogy (Polo Vallejo, Doug Goodking) voice teaching skills (Esperanza Abad) and she completed her studies with breathing and relaxation techniques, armonic singing, primal singing…

Historical music gave way to free improvisation, a subject in wich now she bases most of her work.

In 2003 she joined the duo Punto Cero, with composer Francis García, doing a series of concerts with vocal improvisation, performace and electroacoustics (Universidad Felipe II, Espacio Menosuno, Cuenca’s SIMAC,  “De Improviso” Festival).

She has sung as a soloist with LIO (London Improvisers Orchestra) in London, and has a teaching activity over free improvisation through Lisbon Jazz Summer School (Ferias com Jazz), that takes place at CCB in Lisbon (2009 and 2010).
