She loves to communicate with the audience. Alondra de la Parra has taken the world’s concert halls by storm. Conducting more than 100 orchestras in 20 countries, she has shattered the glass ceiling in a male-dominated profession. In this short, she conducts the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen and the public at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg. Together, they play Arturo Márquez' "Danzón No. 2". Born in 1980 in New York, Alondra de la Parra decided early on that she wanted to become a conductor. Her great dream has taken her on a long journey – and it is far from over yet. De la Parra’a roots are in Mexico – but her orchestras and her audiences are all over the world. She is a trailblazer who has made history by being appointed the first ever music director and female conductor of the Queensland Symphony Orchestra in 2017. Alondra de la Parra began playing the piano at age seven and the cello at 13. After studying in England and the United States – with Kurt Masur and Kenneth Kiesler among her mentors - she founded the Philharmonic Orchestra of the Americas (POA) in 2004 at age 23. To date, she has conducted more than a hundred orchestras in twenty different countries. Her spellbinding and vibrant performances have gained her widespread attention. Part of her unusual approach to classical music is the unique way she infuses her cultural heritage into the world of classical music: “I’ve always been an advocate that Mexican and Latin American music belongs in the core repertoire of every philharmonic orchestra." #classicalmusic #classicalconcert #conductor
