Óscar Navarro: Emotion, Twenty Years of Music, and the Universe of “Donde nacen los sueños”
Creator of the music for the 10th Anniversary of King Felipe VI, he reflects on his international career and a body of work marked by artistic identity.
By Susan Villa
Over more than two decades of artistic trajectory, Óscar Navarro has established himself as one of the most recognizable and personal voices in contemporary music, with a distinctive language that moves naturally between symphonic music, the audiovisual field, and the international concert scene. His work—performed in some of the world’s most emblematic auditoriums and theatres, such as Carnegie Hall, La Scala, and the Auditorio Nacional—is distinguished by a profound emotional charge and a clear narrative vocation, where music not only sounds, but tells stories and seeks a direct connection with the listener. Far removed from preconceived formulas, Navarro understands composition as a vital process, in which artistic identity is built progressively, through creative honesty and the need to communicate from the most intimate place.
