Alejandra Torres is a trailblazing Latin American violinist, who made her mark as the first female member from the region to join the prestigious Vienna Philharmonic, an ensemble celebrated for its unique sonic beauty. Torres has received widespread acclaim, including two gold medals from the Global Music Awards and a win at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards for “Outstanding Instrumental Performance.”

Torres is not only a classical musician achieving dreams, but also a visionary aiming to bridge cultures and empower women in the music industry. Her goal is to foster a dialogue of empowerment, protest, and sisterhood through an artistic tour involving Colombia, Venezuela, and Japan, spotlighting the challenges faced by women and dissident artists. Her story is intertwined with her roots in Medellín, a place of resilience and transformation known as the “city of eternal spring”, which continues to inspire her artistic and personal evolution.

Her performances alongside maestro Roberto Quintero, offer a vibrant fusion of Antonio Vivaldi’s “Four Seasons” with Afro-Latin American rhythms, creating a unique dialogue between classical compositions and the rich musical traditions of Africa and Latin America. This innovative combination is achieved through the use of a Yamaha “Silent Violin” and multi-percussion, bringing both a technological and a cultural transformation to the interpretation of Vivaldi’s much-admired work.
