Beatriz Fernández currently holds commitments in countries such as Holland, México, France and The USA. In terms of her most recent achievements, Beatriz’s brilliant performance in the La Maestra Conducting Competition 2022 last March resulted in Third Prize and the ARTE Prize. Since then, she has become a member of La Maestra Academy in the Philharmonie de Paris, where she participates in professional experiences and receives guidance from internationally acclaimed conductors such as: François-Xavier Roth, Kirill Karabits, David Reiland, Lin Liao, Klaus Mäkela, and Tugan Sokhiev. This position has also afforded her the opprotunity to work with prestigious orchestras such as Orchestre National de Metz Grand Est, Orquesta Nacional de Île-de-France (ONDIF), Ensemble Intercontemporain, Orquesta de París, Orquestra du Capitole de Toulouse, among others.
 

Recently, Beatriz was selected by Maestra Alondra de la Parra as assistant conductor and cover conductor for the First Edition of the Festival PAAX GNP 2022 in Mexico and the Tour of “Silence of Sound” in Berlin. Other mentors include the most prominent conductors on the world stage: Juanjo Mena, Roberto Forés, and Miguel Romea.

Beatriz began her studies in one of the most musically prolific and culturally vibrant parts of Spain, Valencia. The revolutionary, yet traditional, band structure was the key to her finding a strong connection to music and social communication. In addition, she studied with Joshard Daus at the University of Mainz, Peter Gülke at the Mozarteum University, Michel Tabachnik at the Accademia Musicale Chigiana, and did a postgraduate degree in contemporary repertoire at the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana in Lugano under Arturo Tamayo, as well as participated in the Riccardo Muti Italian Opera Academy, and the Aix-en-Provence Festival Academy.

Her debut with Orquesta de Valencia in 2015 was Beatriz’s introduction to the professional world.
