Music has played an important role on the life
of guitarist and composer Cesar Medel, who began to experience music
himself at a very young age.
Introduced to
the guitar music by his father, he began the adventure that later
became a life dedicated to share the value of music for guitar.
He
entered the Hizidor Handler K Conservatory of Music of Viña del Mar;
there he began his study of classical guitar with Professor Ximena
Matamoros, who helped him to develop a style and an identity of his
own for interpreting the guitar. At that time he also came to know
Sergio Vilchez, the Director of the Conservatory, with whom he still
shares a great friendship. In his later years of study at the
Conservatory he worked with Professor Antonio Rioseco, the Chair of
the guitar department and a Master of several research and
transcriptions of Music made for the guitar.
Motivated by his
faith Cesar began arranging and performing traditional Christian
music on guitar
His Album
titled “Grand Solo” is a classical
guitar album, featuring Works by important composers for the
instrument. Recorded and published in the USA, album that has been
acclaimed by the public and followers of the artist.
Cesar resides in
the beautiful Washington State, in the USA, along with his wife and
two daughters (Carolina and Danette),
in a place that he recalls “Celtic Land”, because of the impressive
landscapes, the islands and its culture.
In April 2007, he officially
released Unforgettable Songs under Greenland Music Group (his record
label) with interpretations on guitar of popular hits in music.
He releases Eternal Light
in June 2008,
a collection of religious (Christian) songs
and Hymns, based in the musical concept of the original album
recorded in 2001,featuring arrangements for solo guitar, duets and
trio ansambles of guitar, violin and piano.
With a busy
Schedule, Cesar continues giving concerts and recitals, delighting
audiences with his performances.
