About
Gustavo Leone was born in Buenos Aires in 1956 and is now a professor of music at Loyola University in Chicago. His music combines a strong sense of atmosphere with a feeling for drama. Its basic lyricism is coloured with echoes of folk-music and the Baroque and animated by outbreaks of dancing energy.
The Cuarteto Q-Arte – Diego García and Liz García, violins, Sandra Arango, viola, and Juan Higuita, cello – are all professors of the Music Conservatoire at the National University of Colombia in Bogotá who have focussed on exploring and disseminating music for string quartet by composers from different Latin American countries, primarily contemporary Colombians.
With a traditional academic training as an opera singer, and especially inclined towards chamber music, Beatriz Elena Martinez has been dedicated to exploring the technical possibilities of the voice in the contemporary repertoire, a process constantly fed by the composers with whom she works and the challenges that students share with her. She has premiered around 70 works, mostly Colombian, many of which have been written for her. She is director of the department of singing in the College of Arts ASAB of the University of Bogotá.
Martha Liliana Bonilla currently serves as harpist in the Bogotá Philharmonic Orchestra and professor of harp at the Pontifical Javeriana University in Colombia.
