My intentions was to learn some chords to play Beatles but in my first day Anselmo played Preludio 1 of Villa-Lobos and from that moment I fall in love with the guitar. At the same time I took lessons with Mario Villagran an other great uruguayan song writer and guitar player. In 1992 i continued my studies with Regina Carrizo. One year later I went for 1 year to the EUM (Montevideos Music School) and open house classes with Abel Carlevaro (a major experience that I will never forget). In 1997 I came back to Uruguay after have been living in Sweden were I study a couple of month with the composer Staffan Storm, to continue with my studies in the EUM with Mario Paysee. Beside I took music lessons with the uruguayan composer Ulisses Ferretti and I study with Esteban Gil the traditional music of Latin America in the guitar, two work shops with Eduardo Fernandez and master classes with Magnus Andersson, Paul O'Dette, Shin-ichi Fukuda and Oscar Herrero. I have been playing in bands since 1992. My first "band" was a duo with Exequiel Caldas and later on we build up a trio with Pablo Grandal called "Cueros" for a 2 month European Street Tour in 1996. After that in 1997 I joined the uruguayan folk group Grupo Horizontes that was already playing since late 80', performing in several countries as Uruguay, Brasil, Argentina, Mexico, Cuba and USA. We recorded in 99 the album "Musica Latinoamericana" a compilation of latin american folk music. In 2002 I joined the music project of Stephanie Rijsenaars "Stefka Band" recording "Del Recuerdo de Amor" and performing in Holland. Since 2006 I decided to start with my owen music project and invited Sergio Sinning to join Kixote Project.
