Daniel Reyes Llinás, a Colombian composer, guitarist, and producer, derives inspiration from rhythmic and melodic angularity. He weaves atonal architectures with vibrant lyricism into his music.

I always make sure to give my students the opportunity to ask questions about anything, even if it's not related to what we're studying at the moment. Read More
