Meet Carlos
Tell us about yourself.
I am a Puerto Rican composer of Afro-Caribbean descent.
Briefly explain your artistic practice and/or scholarly research.
My music is part of the tradition that we call classical music, for lack of a better word. That tradition spans centuries and cultures, so I incorporate elements of Puerto Rican music in my practice.
How do you hope your work impacts people?
I hope that my music creates a dialogue with the public.
What is your favorite or informal way or space to engage with arts and culture in your community?
I love going to museums and concerts; they inspire me.
