"During the creative process, he had the help of Tomás Amela, head of the Iberpiano music store, and José Antonio Villalba, guitar builder.

All this served as inspiration to develop the poster ”, said the designer.

Therefore, the image shows elements and pieces of the interior of an instrument, which make it possible for music to happen.For her part, María José Castaño pointed out that "there are numerous young people, with fascinating talent, who are eager to participate in this edition of Entre Cuerdas y Metales."
