Fernando Ferrer Martínez (* 1966 in Valencia, Spain), known by his stage name Ferrer Ferran, is a pianist, composer and conductor from Valencia in Spain. In 2021, he was awarded the Premio EUTERPE Extraordinario of the Federación de Sociedades Musicales de la Comunidad Valenciana (FSMCV), in recognition of his work to date in the world of composition and conducting, both nationally and internationally.^[1]

Biography[edit]

He graduated with distinction from the Conservatorio Superior of Valencia in composition, piano, chamber music, percussion and orchestral conducting.^[2] He had already completed his studies in piano and percussion at the age of 15. Then he continued his studies in Hungary at the University of Esztergom in the fields of orchestral conducting, choir and pedagogy. He is currently a lecturer and teacher at the Valencia Conservatory.^[3] He is also a lecturer at master classes^[4] and a juror at wind band competitions and composition competitions all over the world.

Compositions and Recordings[edit]

He has composed more than 200 music pieces for wind orchestras that were interpreted by wind bands all over the world.

La Pasión de Cristo, Symphony n.º 2 (2001)^[5] is one of his most important and impressive work. With the expressive means of a large symphonic wind orchestra, the orchestra retraces individual stations from the life and death of Jesus Christ and merges these "snapshots" in a musical language that is on the one hand late romantic, but on the other hand also contemporary, to create a cinematic sound painting.

El Ángel de la Muerte de Bremen (Bremen’s Angel of Death) (2022)^[6] for example was recorded during its world premiere at the DaCapo Festival in Germany. It tells the historical story of a german serial killer.

At the moment he is the musical director of the band Ateneo Musical de Cullera^[7].
