ACERCA DE
Alonso Julián se entrega en cuerpo y alma a la creación de composiciones que cautivan y conmueven a cada oyente. Su devoción por la música se refleja en cada melodía; cada nota es testimonio de su profunda pasión. Con cada composición, busca evocar reflexiones profundas y conmover los corazones de quienes se conmueven con su música.
Nacido en Monterrey, Nuevo León, la trayectoria musical de Alonso Julián comenzó a la tierna edad de 7 años bajo la tutela de tutores privados, sentando las bases de su educación formal. A los 14 años, ingresó a la prestigiosa Escuela de Música y Danza de Monterrey, un momento crucial que marcó el inicio de su formación formal, culminando con su graduación en 2005.
Alonso perfeccionó su arte pianístico bajo la tutela de estimados mentores como Bernard Flavigny de Francia, Laura Sosa representando a México y las conmovedoras enseñanzas de Ileana Bautista de Cuba.
Su trayectoria como compositor se vio enriquecida por figuras destacadas como José Luis Wario Díaz, Eduardo Caballero y Víctor Rasgado Flores. De particular impacto fue su colaboración con Víctor Rasgado Flores, profundizando en diversos cursos sobre técnicas de composición musical del siglo XX, composición de música de concierto y el fascinante mundo de la "Armonía de los Números".
Además de su interés por la composición, profundizó en la importancia del diálogo entre compositores e instrumentistas a través de cursos impartidos por los maestros ingleses Aaron Shorr y Peter Sheppard. Exploró el complejo mundo de la armonía del jazz bajo la tutela de Claudio Tarris, de Argentina, y Alejandro Corona, de México. También se adentró en el mundo del jazz latino con Odalys Villavicencio, de Cuba. Para enriquecer aún más su repertorio, realizó un curso de orquestación bajo la tutela del compositor y director Miguel Almaguer, de México.
