Ander Tellería
|
Internationally acclaimed by critics as an “accordion prodigy” and by EL Mundo and ABC as one of the five Spanish players with more projection, Ander Tellería is one of the most active accordionists and with better prospects in Spain.
His interest in ancient music and his research work on this field have led him to develop new sounds in the accordion with the meantone-pythagorean accordion, an instrument with design and tuning features that make it similar to the sound of the Middle Age and Renaissance times. On the other hand, his zest for innovation and the search of new ways of expression have led Ander Tellería to work with contemporary composers like José María Sanchez-Verdú, Yu Kuwabara, Markus Stockhausen, Snezana Nesic, Akira Nishimura, Ramón Lazkano, J.J. Eslava, J. X Schachtner, Zuriñe Gerenabarrena, Joao Godinho, Louis Aguirre, Wen Liu, Stefano Bonilauri, Antonio Lauzurika, Mauricio Sotelo, Agustín Charles, Carlos Trujillo, Naoto Kobayashi, Mikel Urquiza, Aurelio Edler-Copes, Francisco José Ríos and Carlos Perales and to perform premieres of their works. Besides showing his huge talent as an accordionist in the concerts he gives in countries like Spain, Argentina, Portugal, Estonia, Germany, France, Greece, Italy, Japan, Croatia and Holland or in prestigious festivals like Brucknerfest Linz in Austria or Quincena Musical, Ander Tellería is developing a solid career as a soloist, having offered concerts with orchestras like Norddeutsches Philarmonisches Orchester, Spanish National Orchestra, Orquesta Sinfónica de Granada, Bilbao Symphonic Orchestra, Ensemble Ciklus and Orquesta Sinfónica de Radio Televisión Española (ORTVE), under the baton of Rafael Payaré, Nacho de Paz, Asier Puga, Rubén Gimeno, Anja Bihlmaier, Jordi Francés or Gil Raveh. His cd Horos got the Musika Bulegoa 2021 Prize and Recomended cd of the month by the music specialized magazine Melómano. Graduated from the Music Conservatory of the Basque Country (Musikene) under the leadership of Iñaki Alberdi and from the Hochschule für Musik Würzburg (Germany), where he earned a Master in Music Interpretation and Soloist under Stefan Hussong, he has completed his training with the most representative teachers of the different accordion schools. Committed to bringing music to the new generations, Ander Tellería currently combines his career as a performer with teaching accordion at the Music Conservatory of Aragón (CSMA) and giving masterclass around Europe. |
