As a performer, Claudia’s career has been diverse, with significant experience as a soloist as well as in chamber music, ballet, and orchestra settings. Engaging in improvisation, contemporary music, and performing works by renowned composers, her wide-ranging background has honed her creativity and flexibility on stage, qualities she brings to her lessons through both technical expertise (emphasizing a healthy technique that ensures long-term success and prevents injury) and a comprehensive pedagogical approach.
As an educator, she specializes in classical pedal and lever harp instruction and strives to create an inclusive and supportive environment that nurtures each student’s individuality while empowering them to explore the full spectrum of possibilities in music, beyond traditional performances and styles. Experiencing musical diversity and engaging in philosophical discourse are integral parts of Claudia’s classes, where students can appreciate the broad range of musical expression beyond the classical canon and develop critical thinking and philosophical reflection.
In January 2025, she was invited to give a Masterclass at the Conservatorio de Música Juan Crisóstomo de Arriaga (Bilbao), sharing her expertise with young musicians. Her teaching experiences in private lessons, combined with her pedagogical studies, have enabled her to develop adaptable and individualized teaching methods essential for successful instruction. To tailor her teaching to each student’s personality, morphology, needs, and interests, Claudia continuously updates her knowledge and creates new arrangements of music for the harp.
