Meet Mireia Vaquer Fortuny: Bozar's Young Ambassador for Classical Music

Hey there, I'm Mireia Vaquer, your Classical Music Young Ambassador at Bozar for the 2023-2024 season. I'm on a mission to break down the walls around classical music and make it resonate with a younger audience.

Bozar Young Ambassadors

When I first applied, I wasn't sure if I'd fit the bill, having no background in content creation or social media roles. But here I am, stepping out of my comfort zone, diving headfirst into a world where classical music meets creative content. 

Being a Young Ambassador means a lot to me—it's about experiencing something different, blending the soul of classical music with the dynamic world of content creation. I'm thinking about how to grab the attention of young minds, making classical music not just a genre but an experience.

 

Music, to me, is the ultimate tool for community building. It's a universal language that transcends barriers. As a musician, I understand its power—it's direct, emotional, and has the ability to connect people on a profound level. I listen to a bit of everything—classical, pop, Latin, baroque, techno, reggaeton. My Spotify Wrapped would be an eclectic mix of Coldplay, Els Pets, Bad Bunny, and Beethoven. 

Looking back a year from now, I want to see this program as a personal and professional growth journey. It's not just about music but also about navigating the realms of social media creation. The role has grown on me, and I've connected with inspiring fellow ambassadors who form a fantastic team. Learning, exploring new roles, and stepping out of my comfort zone—that's what I hope defines my experience. 

To future Young Ambassadors: Embrace your passion, enjoy the ride, and don't shy away from unexpected opportunities. Sometimes, the most surprising environments can unfold the richest experiences. Can't wait to see what the future holds!
