Biography

Rosa Pampillo was born in San José, Costa Rica, where she began her violin studies at the National Institute of Music and pursued music pedagogy at the University of Costa Rica. In 2004, she moved to Spain to further her musical education, obtaining a Bachelor’s Degree in Violin Performance from the Vigo Conservatory of Music. She also holds a degree in Music History and Sciences from the University of La Rioja (Spain) and a Master's in Music from the University of Aveiro (Portugal). In addition to her specialization in classical violin, she pursued studies in folk violin, Celtic harp, and traditional Galician singing.
During the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 academic years, she was awarded a postgraduate study grant by the Fundación Segundo Gil Dávila.
She was selected as a member of the 2019 Global Leaders Program (Executive Graduate Certificate in Social Entrepreneurship, Cultural Management, Arts Education, Civic Leadership, and Organizational Administration). Through this program, she had the opportunity to work in South America with socially-driven musical organizations such as CampMusicaustral (Frutillar, Chile) and NEOJIBA (Salvador da Bahia, Brazil).
Currently, she is pursuing her PhD in Music at the University of Aveiro while working as a violin, ensemble, and music theory instructor in southern Galicia (Spain).

Abstract
This ethnomusicological study focuses on the dynamics that have taken place around the fiddle in Galicia during the 21st century. One of these dynamics was the creation of the Asociación Cultural Galicia Fiddle in 2010. Since then, the fiddle in Galicia, specifically in the province of Pontevedra, has undergone a process of intertwining that has been studied in this thesis using the theoretical model of the planetary turn (Elias and Moraru 2015).
Within the panorama of traditional and folk music in Galicia in the 21st century, Galicia Fiddle has created a constellation of musicians around the violin, based on values such as artivism, ecology, and the declassification of fixed categories that do not fit the dynamic flows of this century. Through a series of concrete actions, they have developed an expansive route to and from Galicia, which includes both musicians from Galicia and other latitudes. Together, they have participated in constructing an imagined community around the concept of folk music.
This study comprises a synchronic perspective around the analysis of events from the viewpoint of autoethnography and the ‘researcher-musician’ (Wong 2008). There is also a diachronic perspective, which includes the study of historical contexts and events related to the dynamics analyzed. To carry out this research, I used the ethnographic method through participant observation at fiddle concerts, festivals, courses, and conferences.
