Here, Kazushi Ono gathered a Bach concerto (transcribed for violin), a rarely-performed work by Schumann and Richard Strauss’ Also sprach Zarathustra.

Sheila Isla Zarabozo

Nacida en Asturias, a los trece años ya tenía claro que quería ser musicóloga, en el año 2015 comenzó sus estudios en la Universidad de Oviedo. Posteriormente, se mudaría a Barcelona donde cursó el Máster de Música como arte Interdisciplinar (Universitat de Barcelona / ESMUC / Universitat Rovira i Virgili), a través del cual hizo unas prácticas en el archivo de la Banda Municipal de Barcelona, donde pudo acercarse a una formación sinfónica profesional y al mundo de la documentación musical.
