# About me
Born in Buenos Aires, Argentina, I took knowledge of the Celtic world at the age of twenty motivated by my love of literary and musical subjects.Thanks to Janet & Robin Williamson (www.pigswhiskermusic.co.uk), and Irish harp champion Sylvia Woods (www.harpcenter.com), I began to incorporate, the melodies and knowledge of traditional techniques and instruments, focusing on the implementation of whistle and Gaelic harp. Ireland, with its legends and mythological cycle, lured me to cross the main gate of the Celtic world. Passion that lead me by 1985 to organize a Celtic Festival in Buenos Aires (historically the first took place in l960), as well as other cultural and musical activities within the Irish community living in Argentina, thereby developing an attitude because of the disregard on certain community sectors for their Celtic roots.
Convinced of the need to create a center that would bring young people linked by inheritance and / or affection for their Celtic roots, in 1986 I participated as co-founder of the Celtic Association of Galician Pipers, crystallizing my longing for a Celtic awakening in South America . Identified with a deep pan-celtic commitment, studied the folklore and history of Ireland and its sister nations, Scotland, Wales, Brittany in Armorica, and Spanish celtic, Galicia and Asturias. Along with the Celtic group 'Poitín' belonging to this Association, I played the harp and whistles,and wrote some Gaelic poetry featuring a traditional projection of my own.
In the year 1988 it was published in Spain my work' Correspondence between the Galician and Asturian Legends', a comparative test that parallels the grounds of Celtic folklore. This edition was done in Asturian language due to the management of the Celtic League de Asturias and the support of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Sport of Asturias. At the beginning of'90 and after several performances and a tour in Patagonia, for welsh communities settled in our country, 'Poitín' dissolves, leaving a testimony tape released independently in 1988, memorable for being the first of its kind in Argentina.
Along with Manuel Castro I published in 1993 a book of poems called 'Celtic Legacy', a bilingual edition in Galician / Spanish, unprecedented, poems of own authorship and bardic styled.
I took part as a co-founder of subsequent bands like 'Lenda Gwyn' and 'Duir', staying active with the latter about four years, and with whom O participated in the First and Second 'Keltoi' Celtic Festival ion Buenos Aires. In October l997, I performed soloist in the welsh 'Gorsedd' of Patagonia, Argentina, the first since 1910, where I was invited to join the Bardic Circle at the behest of the Welsh Community of Trelew. Later that month, I quit 'Duir' to pursue a solo project due to a proposal made by a record label in California, USA. This motivated me to meet other musicians of equal entity under a new name 'Bran', with whom I issued 'Awen', my debut CD album in July 1998.
Performances led me to the Astros Theater, Opera, Margarita Xirgu, Pelayo, Auditorio de Belgrano and ND Ateneo; Irish Centers, Theaters, Pubs and located in Rosario, Pergamino, Junin and La Plata, to reach the status of beings the first Argentine to participate in the "Celtic The 5th Celtic Meeting" held in Santiago de Chile in November 2002 and in the "Primer Festival Celta" in Montevideo in March 2003. Solo performances w/ Gaelic harp led me to various audiences and emblematic places as the Argentine Theatre of La Plata & Tortoni Café in Buenos Aires.
In the month of May 2003, the prestigious Galician folk group "Luar na Lubre" add music to one of my poems. This collaboration is crystallized in April 2004 with the inclusion of this piece on two tracks from the album "Hai un Paraiso" published under the label Warner Music Spain. Alongside Bran, I did participated as guest
Musician of their South American tour, performing at the Opera Theatre in Buenos Aires on 12-7-04.
Along with a friend musician , Gabriel Bollani, I developed in 2006/2007 a new Celtic musical project that combines virtual and acoustic sounds. Songs of love and hope, along with instrumentals experience a new hue under a new style which I decided to label as “New Celtic”.
In 2008 – I created a blogsite of my own named "Celtic Sprite - My musical perspective on celtic roots and other works”. Music, culture and literature take place along with the collaboration of musicians and journalists from other countries.
On January 2010 created the Facebook Page "Amigos Celtas" A site intended to spread celtic culture and activities in Spanish, along with local and foreign co-equipers. Surpassing nowadays the number of 8000 followers.
On September 2011 created the Facebook Page "Love of Rhiannon - The Celtic Moon Goddess". A site intended to spread celtic culture and related sources regarding the Moon Goddess in her many aspects.
On May 2012 he began to publish his books which also include his digital artworks for their covers and interior design. Artworks that can be found in high resolution at his "deviantArt/branawen" site amongst many other collaborations and commissioned works.
On June 2013 he begins a joint-venture with the celebrated Asturian writer and reviewer Xurde Morán, and both published the eBook "The Primitive Way between Asturias and Galicia - Road Diary". Besides, he also created and supports his personal blog (xurdemoran.blogspot.com ) and Facebook Pages.
On July 2014 he produced the "Relaxing Sounds" album along with the acclaimed harpist Patricia Isabel Puricelli, available now at "SoundCloud.com".
