Last October 29, I played the first of 2 solo cello recitals, performing Bach’s 6 suites.
The concert took place at the Museum of Fine Arts of A Coruña, as part of its XXV Autumn Concert Series.
On the program, Suites 1, 5 and 6. And here are some of the videos.

Here are some thoughts about this music:
The study of J.S. Bach’s 6 Suites for a cellist is undoubtedly a long-term task. We performers review and revise our interpretations over the years, incorporating into them our knowledge gradually obtained through the practice, teaching and the exchange of ideas with other colleagues or the appearance of new publications on the subject such as Anner Bylsma’s fundamental book “Bach, The Fencing Master. About Mrs. Anna Magdalena Bach’s autograph copy of the 6 Suites for violoncello solo senza basso of Johann Sebastian Bach.”
That is why, at a time of maturity in my professional career, I consider that the right time has come to present my work around this eternal and wonderful musical repertoire to the public.

From August 20th till 27th I was teaching at the wonderful summer course https://www.cursohagamosmusica.com
Year after year I feel happy to be a member of the staff together with my friend and cellist colleague Suzanna Stefanovic.
Thank you all for such great memories.
In April 2023 I was invited by Professor Diego Arbizu to teach the cello students at the Conservatorio Superior de Música de Navarra https://csmn.educacion.navarra.es/web1/ and I very much enjoyed the opportunity to met new and interesting young cellists.

Recently I achieved the magical number of 10 dissertations. Meaning that I have so far advised 10 bachelor’s degree students in their written works and recitals. I feel very proud of all this young cellists who have accomplished a lot. You can have a quick overlook through all of their dissertations about very different cello topics.
