Are you a Music student

King's College London where Cuban-American pedagogue and polymath, Odaline de
la Martínez, will be offering a day of public, one-to-one coaching sessions on
Latin Classical repertoire to a group of young talents.
Odaline de la Martínez is a formidable force on today's classical music scene, pursuing a busy career as a composer, conductor, record producer and event curator. Working with everything from Mozart symphonies to the latest contemporary music, she has acquired a remarkable reputation for her versatile and eclectic vision. Martínez obtained her MMus in Composition at the University of Surrey following studies at Tulane University and the Royal Academy of Music, where she founded her ensemble, Lontano, in 1976 and with whom she has performed and broadcast all over the world. She appears frequently as guest conductor with leading orchestras worldwide and throughout Great Britain, including all the BBC orchestras; Martínez was the first woman to conduct a BBC Prom at the Royal Albert Hall in 1984.
