Biografía
(Fuente: Wikipedia)
Nace en Aranda de Duero, comenzando los estudios en Pamplona, donde da su primer concierto a los 10 años. A los 18 años obtiene el Primer Premio y Premio Extraordinario en el Real Conservatorio de Madrid, siendo sus profesores Puri Villar y Julia Parody, en cuya clase inicia su amistad con Esteban Sánchez. Asiste a los Cursos Internacionales de la Academia Chigiana de Siena con Guido Agosti y tras abandonar sus estudios de medicina, se traslada a Viena (1956-1965) donde estudia con Viola Thern, Paul Badura-Skoda, Jörg Demus y Alfred Brendel.
Realizó sus estudios de música en el Real Conservatorio Superior de Música de Madrid perfeccionando posteriormente sus conocimientos en distintas ciudades italianas.
Se ha concentrado en la interpretación de música renacentista y barroca actuando en escenarios de todo el mundo.[3] [4]
También ha dedicado gran parte de su trabajo a la restauración de órganos, muchos de ellos abandonados y olvidados a lo largo de muchas iglesias españolas. Posteriormente se ha dedicado a la grabación de numerosas composiciones de músicos españoles, especialmente de Antonio de Cabezón del que ha interpretado y grabado sus obras completas siendo la única íntegra hasta el momento.
Su carrera internacional comienza en 1961 al obtener en el Concurso Internacional “Viotti” de Vercelli, un Premio Especial fundado por el famoso pianista Arturo Benedetti-Michelangeli, Presidente del Jurado. En 1963 interpreta las Seis Partitas deBach en un solo concierto en Viena, Madrid, Barcelona… siendo considerado por la crítica como un especialista en el gran compositor alemán. En los actos de inauguración del Teatro Real presenta junto a Santiago Kastner dos programas con obras de Cabezón en Madrid, con una notable resonancia, recibiendo - al lado de Nadia Boulanger - el Premio “Juventudes Musicales de Madrid” a las mejores interpretaciones de la temporada. Su estrecha amistad con Fernando Remacha (uno de los notables maestros de la Generación del 27) le pone en contacto con los ideales de recuperación del antiguo patrimonio musical español e inicia una actividad de investigación y difusión que compartirá en el futuro con su actividad concertística.
El primer trabajo discográfico extenso es la “Obra Completa” de Antonio de Cabezón (15 discos) en versiones sobre órganos históricos españoles, piano moderno y diecisiete instrumentos originales de los Museos Instrumentales de Londres (Fenton House y Victoria and Albert Museum), Núremberg (Germanisches Nationalmuseum) y París (Musée du Conservatoire). Su edición por Hispavox recibe en dos ocasiones el Premio Nacional del Disco y el de la revista Ritmo, siendo nominada para el Premio Mundial del Disco de Montreux. Su ejecución integra en diez recitales fue organizada dentro del “III Ciclo de Grandes Autores e Intérpretes” de la Universidad Autónoma de Madrid.
Ha participado en numerosos conciertos conmemorativos especiales: Centenarios de Albert Schweitzer, Haydn, Soler o la ejecución integral de la obra de teclado de Bach en la Gewandhaus de Leipzig para la “Neue Bach Gesellschaft” o en el 150 aniversario de la muerte de Schubert en el Festival de Granada. Numerosos ciclos y conciertos sobre Mozart y su obra así como múltiples colaboraciones para los actos del “Quinto Centenario” y “Expo 92” de Sevilla, “Europalia” (Bruselas), “Exposición Universal de Lisboa”, “España Nuevo Milenio”, Instituto Cervantes, “Salamanca 2002”, “Seacex”, “Sociedad Estatal de Conmemoraciones Culturales”… ejerciendo asimismo una creciente actividad pedagógica (cursos de interpretación, temas especializados, jurado en concursos internacionales, etc.).
Su atención hacia el Barroco y al ideal sonoro de épocas pretéritas ha impulsado la recuperación de órganos históricos y pianofortes, colaborando en presentaciones con el patrocinio de la UNESCO y otras Fundaciones (Sánchez-Albornoz, Hennie Omstad, Juan March, Banco Consolidado, Gulbenkian, Real Fundación de Toledo, etc). Conciertos especiales en el Archivo General de Simancas (Centenario de Felipe II), Monasterio de El Escorial, Palacio Real de Versalles, Les Invalides (París), Royal Academy of Music (Londres), Kunsthistorisches Museum (Viena), etc.
Extiende su actividad concertística a América (Metropolitan Museum, Carnegie Hall, Library of Congress, Cleveland Museum of Art, Princeton University, New York University, University of Harvard, etc.) actuando en recitales como con relevantes orquestas y producciones de Radio y Televisión. Sus giras en la antigua URSS - del Báltico a Siberia - han constituido también notables éxitos, como el “Ciclo de Música Española” en el Conservatorio Tchaikovsky de Moscú, y Masterclasses en el Collegium Musicum de dicho centro y Capilla Imperial de San Petersburgo.
Sus trabajos de musicólogo e investigador se hallan recogidos principalmente en “Nueva Biblioteca Española de Música de Teclado” (siglos XVI al XVIII; UME), con quinientas obras inéditas españolas y “Cuadernos para el Piano” (Real Musical). Igualmente la “Obra completa para piano” de Fernando Remacha (Pamplona, 2003).

MYSTERIUM
Mysterium is a multi-sensorial concert that redefines the traditional boundaries of listening to live music. A refined selection of classical piano works are presented in combination with an olfactory landscape (or scent-scape) carefully constructed with fine essences and colored lighting design. This conceptual form of live musical performance, involves the audience in a new aesthetic and emotional experience. The perfumed essences, created by maitre perfumer Sileno Cheloni, and colored lights designed by Samantha Stout harmonize with the piano music, leading the listener on a journey. The multi-dimensional sensory stimuli provide a musical listening experience at the most profound level of human cognition and emotion.
The project was conceptualized following the synesthetic expressions of Russian composer, Alexander Scriabin, with colors associated to sounds and tonality; and inspired also from the study of the “Clavier a Lumiere” and the departure of Prometheus, Poem of Fire, op. 60 (1910). From the sounds and their associated colors, the pianist and composer Antonio Artese has added an olfactory dimension to the performance by way of selecting custom perfumed essences crafted by Cheloni.
Scientific studies have, in fact, demonstrated that the perception of stimuli by the olfactory system produces a strong evocation of images and memories, and amplifies the emotional experience induced by the music, due to the direct connection to the brain’s limbic system - the center of human emotion and memory.
The program consists of works by Alexander Scriabin, together with masterpieces from Grieg, and original compositions. Maestro Artese adds two original suites for piano, “Lakes of My Mind” (2014) and “The Island”, a series of musical portraits emerging from sensorial / olfactory and soundscape memories inspired by walks on the Mallorca Island.
Mysterium debuted with great success on the occasion of the International Conference of Music in Museums held in Florence on February 21st 2014. The first concert was held in the intriguing Hall of Statues at the Stefano Bardini Museum in Florence. Mysterium was subsequently presented in Palma de Mallorca, Spain; and Rome, Campobasso (Italy), Ferrara, and at “La Specola” Museum and Villa di Maiano in Florence.
Particularly suited to smaller venues, where the proximity of the audience to the musician permits a unique intimacy and direct involvement in the sensorial experience, Mysterium is highly recommended to curious and imaginative audiences interested in a vibrant and new aesthetic experience.

About Tres Cordes
Tres Cordes are combined Spanish-French words, literally meaning ‘three strings’. It is used here to represent the violin, viola and cello. Each trio player brings with them the unique colour of their stringed instrument – the violin, viola and cello, to blend as a unified whole. Together they aim to bring music to life with warmth, life and beauty.
In piano music, Tre Corde means to release the soft pedal, allowing the hammers to play on all of the strings belonging to each note, creating a rich, full, resonant tone - the sound Tres Cordes wish to achieve.
Tres Cordes string trio has been performing together since 2007, and are all members of the Christchurch Symphony Orchestra. The trio has a passion for chamber music which they share with audiences around New Zealand, including live TV broadcasts. In 2013 they toured for Chamber Music NZ, and their playing was described as “high spirited” and “fun overflowing,” “with splendid co-ordination and attack.” by the Rotorua Daily Post. They were invited to the Nelson Composers Workshop in 2011, to perform and work alongside young NZ composers. The trio commissioned and premiered Anthony Ritchie's Easter Melancholy alongside artist Nathanael Provis' landscape paintings for his opening exhibition. Members have performed at the NZ Embassy, Tokyo and their CD “String Trio Sapphires” is regularly broadcast on Concert FM. In 2015, they recorded the music for The Art of Recovery for the New Zealand International Film Festival and performed for the 2016 opening of the Chinese Spring Festival.
