About

An interdisciplinary profile spanning university teaching, classroom practice, performance, and applied research.

Alba Vidal Marco’s work connects higher education, music teaching, violin performance, and research. Her profile bridges areas that are often treated separately: academic reflection, artistic practice, and the design of tools that improve musical understanding.

At UNIR, she contributes to the preparation of professionals in music education and supports applied research processes as a supervisor of Master’s theses. This role is reinforced by an interdisciplinary perspective that brings together pedagogy, perception, technology, and inclusion.

In recent years, she has expanded her technological training in Python and artificial intelligence, integrating these skills into music visualization, educational research, and interdisciplinary creation projects.

Her work aims to create learning frameworks in which music can be understood not only as sound, but also as a visual, embodied, and cognitive experience.
