And having the opportunity then to study in all these different places around the world, how do you think that shaped your journey to becoming a professional musician?

It's a beautiful question.

And I honestly don't have a bright, I mean, let's say an answer to that, because when I look back, I think everything happened naturally.

In a natural way, it was a change of events.

I knew I had always a vein to create, which was calling me more and more as I grew up.

And I knew that that vein of desire to create, as I grew up in music and I studied more, I also started hearing that voice more, feeling like I need to take care of that, you know? So basically it was a progressive and it was happening naturally.

For example, many of the pieces that are on the debut album are rhythmical parts of hearts.

Can you talk about your creative process and how those two different environments inform what you make?

Yes, so I come from studying in conservatories.

So I was playing orchestras, chamber ensembles, different formations, string quartets and so on.

And during the last period of the conservatory in San Francisco, I decided to release my first, my debut album.

And naturally, it happened in a natural process that I was recording everything, all the instruments.

I think it was a natural process of trying to focus on just making music and not on logistics of finding musicians and so on, filmmaking.

So...

Can you tell us how you recorded that?
