About Me |
|
| I started studying piano at 8 in Buenos Aires, and still trying to learn. The same with composition, etc, so that is it, I am a student. Oh yes, I had lots of teachers, including some in Spain and in NY, but never had enoguh money for Berklee and missed all those patterns... I had classical training, but what really got me was the folk music from north west of Argentina. My parents were friends with Jaime Torres, Hugo Diaz...Of course, jazz music and tango have been there since I was a teen, so there they are in what I write as well.
I have been playing, arranging, recording with all styles of singers from rock to tango, from folk to jazz since 1983. After moving to Barcelona in 1996, I have travelled quite a lot playing my own music through Europe, Japan, NY, clubs, festivals... Eclectic, from being guest pianist with Edimburgh Chamber Orchestra in 1999 to conducting my own tango big band arrangements with the Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra at Lincoln Center in NY in 2007. I have 4 CDs on my name for Fresh Sound Records, and doing a new one now. I am so thankful to whoever gave me this skill to put sounds together in a way that sometimes can move people souls. I am thrilled now that I moved to NYC, looking forward to play with all these great musicians and feel and know the music deeper every single day.
Thanks for taking a moment to listen to what I do. The video here is part of the solo on my "Tango Changes" at Smalls, NYC, April 2007, with Jeff Ballard, Chris Cheek, Pablo Aslan, Donny McCaslin and Victor PrietoFree MySpace Layouts by Iron Spider |
