I play classical guitar and try to widen what it can sound like: original compositions, early music in new clothes, techniques borrowed from acoustic and electric guitar, and open tunings, a practice almost absent from the academic world.

On stage I use several instruments, each one already tuned for its pieces, so there is no silent gap for retuning between one piece and the next. Alongside the guitar I play lute and archlute.
