Additional booking notes
For my performances, there are a few important technical requirements to ensure the best possible experience:
Alimentation and Transportation Fee: Please note that these fees are separate from the performance fee.
Microphone and Sound Equipment: A microphone and appropriate sound system are essential if the performance is outdoors. This ensures the cello's sound is projected clearly to the audience. However, in smaller, enclosed spaces like a church, this is not required, as the natural acoustics are usually sufficient.
Staging and Lighting: While I don't have specific lighting requirements, adequate lighting is necessary to ensure both the audience and I can fully engage with the performance.
By meeting these technical needs, we can ensure a smooth and high-quality performance tailored to the venue and audience.

Influences and inspiration
My musical journey has been deeply influenced by the diverse experiences I've had performing across various settings. One of the most impactful influences has been working with Pipe Pelaez, one of Colombia's most popular singers. Collaborating with him on multiple projects exposed me to the richness of Colombian music and the importance of connecting with audiences on a personal level.
Additionally, performing at various events such as awards ceremonies, religious gatherings, birthdays, and even intimate moments like proposals has shaped my approach to music. These experiences have taught me how to tailor my performances to the unique atmosphere of each event, making every moment special and memorable. The diversity of these events has broadened my musical perspective and deepened my commitment to creating meaningful connections through my music.
Setup requirements
Performance Space: A clean, stable stage area with enough space to comfortably set up and play the cello. Adequate seating or standing room for the audience, depending on the venue size and event type
Sound Equipment: Outdoor Performances: A high-quality microphone and sound system to amplify the cello's sound. Indoor Performances: No sound amplification is typically required in smaller, acoustically favorable spaces like churches.
Seating: A sturdy, armless chair for the cello performance.
Lighting: Adequate stage lighting that allows for clear visibility of the sheet music and the cello.
Temperature Control: Indoor venues should maintain a comfortable temperature, as extreme cold or heat can affect the cello’s performance and tuning.
