JAVIER ÁLVAREZ FUENTES
Conductor

My musical journey began in Santiago de Chile, where at the age of 15, I took my first steps into the world of music under the guidance of flutist José Ignacio Orellana. From composition, my path led me to orchestral conducting — driven by the desire not only to execute music perfectly but to make it an experience, inviting people to embark on this journey with me.

​

In Argentina, I refined my skills as an assistant to Maestro David del Pino Klinge with the Provincial Symphony Orchestra of Rosario, deepening my understanding of how music has the power to move communities. I continued this journey in Germany, honing my artistic vision under the mentorship of Professor Rüdiger Bohn.

​

Today, I lead the Opus 125 Orchestra and the Hofgartenorchester in Germany. But my drive goes beyond the baton: I see my role as building bridges between music and the audience — bringing classical music out of its ivory tower and turning it into a vibrant, shared experience.

​

Every rehearsal, every concert is a dialogue — with the musicians on stage and the people in the audience. Music is more than sound — it tells stories, ignites emotions, and creates connections.
