Lorena Cantó Woltèche
My name is Lorena Cantó and I am a Spanish-Belgian violist and graphic designer. In this website I want to share with you my two biggest passions.

How strange it is that one of the features of string players is that we all walk around with a lock of horse hair hanging from a wooden stick and it isn’t fishing gear, neither an amulet to scare off bad spirits. It is an object, which we venerate and adore because we depend on …

There were cars at all times of day and NIGHT! You would wake up and everything around had been transformed into a …
