The magic sounds of the harp are a part of Violetas life since her early childhood.


On her main instrument, the Paraguayan harp, Violeta Ramos first received lessons from Luis Bordón, Chochín Balbuena and Nicolás Caballero. She received her teaching diploma as an instrumental teacher with a major in classical guitar, which she studied at the “Escuela de Bellas Artes” in Quilmes (Buenos Aires, 1986/99). At the same time, she studied tango, folklore and jazz at the “Escuela de música popular de Avellaneda” (Buenos Aires, 1995-2000), as well as composition with electronic media at the “University of Quilmes” (1992-1997).


At the beginning of her career, at the age of 16, Violeta Ramos played in various traditional folklore formations. Later she founded various duo formations (harp and guitar; harp and flute).
