Enric Pastor In addition to combining his work as a violin professor at the Conservatory of Mallorca, is a member of numerous bands that have given him new musical experiences, as well as a member of classical music groups. He has worked on Jazz manouche , tango , flamenco, world music, and bluegrass.
The fusion to Jazz has diversified into many currents in which improvisation is always a common element.
This is how Enrique Pastor's compositions reflect all his sound experiences. We find elements of classical music as well as world music, minimalist music, pop and rock in his themes. He tries to find a balance between the melody which is written out as the main thread and improvisation.
His first album entitled "Canvis" in 2014 is the beginning of a new personal compositional stage. His second album "Moments" was released in 2021 and awarded with the 2021 Enderrock Prize for Balearic music for the best Jazz album is the consolidation towards a defined own style and the reaffirmation of an already consolidated band.
