Bio
I started playing the piano as a child, the guitar at 15 and the dulcimer about 4 years ago. I love blues, rock and classical music, but when I play I focus on traditional music (folk, country, gospel). Now I’m studying medieval music and Cantigas de Santa Maria and an album will be released soon.
