 I studied with some people during some years seriusly but I think I am a self-taught musician, I look for another ways to understanding music, very personal and at the same time universal, true that I can express the knowlege using colors, mantras, mandalas, also little mathematics...  apreciating all the pedagogical tools that all this means.

 Thank you so much for listening!
