He studied piano and composition at the Conservatory and later on started his own school, La Academia de Guitarra. After graduating he gave many recitals, before audiences and on the radio. His best known works are his guitar method Lecciones de Guitarra and some virtuoso pieces like El Colibri, the famous tremolo piece.
