EMILIO CALANDÍN HERNÁNDEZ (Valencia 1958)
Born in Valencia on December 20, 1958 in a family with artistic tradition: his paternal grandfather was a sculptor and, between others, sculpted the image of the “Palleter”; his father, professional actor, director of theatre and teacher of dramatic art and declamation; his mother, pianist, actress and solfa teacher.
Precisely with his mother he begins the music studies in the coral society The Micalet of Valencia where he deals the elementary degree of guitar.
Later he deals average degree of guitar in the Conservatoire of Valencia.
He studies the average and high degrees of composition in the conservatoires of Valencia, Alicante, Carcagente and Meliana.
Besides the musical already indexed studies he obtains the technician's specialist degree in the branch of industrial delineation (industrial mastery).
Parallel to his official studies of music he receives classes of harmony, composition and analysis of the Valencian composers Jose Báguena Soler and Francisco Llácer Plá. His relation with the latter is fundamental for his posterior aesthetic orientation.
