Joan Enric Lluna is a versatile musician who combines his work as a clarinettist with conducting and teaching. His commitment to chamber music has led him to perform with first class string quartets such as the Alexander, Tokyo, Jerusalem, Brodsky or Sine Nomine, and to share trios with artists like Tasmin Little and Martin Roscoe or Lluís Claret and Josep Colom. He is also teacher at the ESMUC, Barcelona; the Trinity College of Music in London; and is regularly invited to give masterclasses and recitals in major musical institutions such as California State University, Royal College and Royal Academy of London or the Royal Scottish Academy of Music in Glasgow.
