Colombian guitar and tiple player and composer Fernando Mora Angel was born in Envigado (Colombia) in 1972. Fernando works combine elements from the art, folk, and popular Colombian and Latin American music. His training as an engineer allows him to explore experimental and contemporary extended techniques of composition. For some of his works, he uses the algorithmic generation of musical ideas derived from artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques. Fernando holds a B.A. in guitar, a B.A. in Systems Engineering, and M.A. in music from the Universidad de Antioquia in Colombia. Fernando teaches at the Universidad de Antioquia, where he is also a researcher of the Regional Music group.

At the Barcelona Festival of Song, Fernando will present a concert in which he plays the guitar, the title, and the charango. In his exploration, he combines techniques, expressions, practices, and musical traditions of the American Andes. He presents his own works as well as the ones of Colombian composer Luis Uribe Bueno. The concert will be broadcasted and streamed live from Medellin, Colombia
