An Evening with Juan Sebastián Delgado

Argentinian cellist Juan Sebastián Delgado, faculty fellow for diversity in the arts, will present on “Finding your own artistic voice: challenges, perspectives, and creativity.”

First-prize winner at the Latin-American Cello Festival in 2008, Argentinean cellist Juan Sebastián Delgado completed doctoral studies in performance at McGill University with cellist Matt Haimovitz focusing on contemporary music and Nuevo Tango. The CBC Radio Ideas chose his artistic research to be featured throughout Canada, and he was the featured cellist in the episode Virtuoso Brain by the TV program Decouverte. Active in the creation and dissemination of new works that explore the cello in innovative ways, Delgado has conducted a variety of creation projects in 27 different countries, including three cello concertos written for him.
