• When did you first develop a passion for music and your favourite instrument?

  I started when I was 7 years old. I have been passionate about music since I was little. The first record I bought was one by Louis Armstrong, when he was 10 years old. Then I kept listening to the big swing bands, like Count Basie, Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, etc. And since then, music has been a fundamental part of my life and I am grateful for it.

• Is there a particular type of music or artist that you listen to on a loop without it driving you crazy?

  Cannonball Adderley is the saxophonist I admire the most.

• Explain to us the most difficult or riveting course you could personally give to a student of music.

  The most riveting course I can give is being yourself with the instrument. Improvise naturally and enjoying the process to creat music on the spot.

• What do you think is the most complicated instrument to master and why?

  All the instruments are complicated in a high level.

• What are your keys to success?

  Developing your technique, your repertoire and your ear harmonically, rhythmically and melodically.

• Name three musicians you dream of meeting in your favourite bar in the early hours of the morning. Explain why.

  I wish they were still alive :)
  
  -Cannonball
  -Charlie Parker
  -Wayne Shorter
  
  I would like to ask them many things, not only about the saxophone but also about life. The energy from them was so special. It is impossible to get that far if you do not develop your soul. I'm sure they had some great advice to give.

• Provide a valuable anecdote related to music or your days at music school.

  When I was ten years old I went up for the first time to do an improvisation in the jazz orchestra of my city:
  
  When I start to improvise I can't find the key and all the notes that came out of my instrument sounded very bad. At the end I go downstage and stay in the pool area waiting for the orchestra to leave. When the orchestra finishes playing, my teacher approaches me and tells me that he was ashamed, that he shouldn't play the sax, that it wasn't my thing.
  That day I went to sleep hugging the book of scales, promising myself never again to confuse a key.
  Years later I ended up being the first saxophonist in the orchestra and on several occasions congratulated by that teacher.
  
  Although the story is quite sad, it helps as an example that no matter what people think, the most important thing is to focus on what you love.

• What are the little touches that make you a Superprof in music?

  I adapt to the student needs, I want them to be motivated and enjoy the learning process. My goal is that they have no limitations so they can go as far as they want to go.
