About Me
Hello!My name is Helena and I am a professional musician. I have done my Bachelor and Master of Music in Accordion Performance in Spain and France, respectively. Now I am living in The Netherlands as a freelance musician since December 2017.
As a professional and a freelance musician, I am looking for different music projects all the time and I perform as a soloist or with ensembles. I think this experience as a performer helps me each day to improve as a musician and as a teacher, since I am always looking for the best result in each concert, with a new repertoire or a new situation.

attention or discipline, along with the most important thing: enjoying music as a fundamental part of life!

Bandoneon Lessons - Learning from the instrument's techniqueBandoneon is a very well know instrument for playing tango, in fact it's part of the genre's DNA. However,
not many people know that the instrument was constructed in Germany and some people even say it was supposed to be used as an portable organ.
This means that the Bandoneon has a technique that is independent of any genre. This technique is not found by coping other instruments such as the organ or keyboard but through the development of the nature of the instrument. This is mainly the importance of the air and how it is affected by the pulling and the movement we make when we play.
Of course Tango will be an important axis of the lessons as it very important for the development of the instrument and for specific techniques but Tango won't be the starting point as it's not the best pedagogical tool for learning the instrument. But no worries, we'll get there ;)
Have you ever wondered how a Gregorian chant, Bach, Mozart & Chopin might sound in the bandoneon? The results might surprise as you would get a very different sound from the one you are originally used to. Also, we can try and use the bandoneon for different and new genres, who knows what we might discover from the instrument along the way?
