Viola & Violin

I am Paloma Ortas, born in Huesca (Spain). When I was 7 years old, my aunt registered me to the conservatory of Huesca and that´s where my musical life started. Years later I moved to Pamplona (Spain) where I studied my bachelor in Viola Performance and Pedagogy. During some masterclasess in Italy I met an amazing teacher Julia Dinerstein and then in 2010, I decided to study with her in the Netherlands at Maastricht Conservatory, where I obtained my Bachelor and Master´s Degree.

As a viola player I perform with various professional orquestras in Spain, The Netherlands and Belgium, from classical style to pop music. I continue working with different essembles and orchestras like The Magic Strings (The Netherlands), and Orchestra Reino de Aragón (Spain).

Since 2015 I am teaching vioIin and viola at UWC Maastricht Music School, and from 2018 I am teaching Chamber Music at A Piacere Limburgs Kamermuziekatelier (Maastricht, The Netherlands). I am a certified Violin teacher in Suzuki Method (Level 3) and member of the Dutch Suzuki Association (Suzuki Vereniging Nederland).
