Jaime Altozano ( Madrid, 1993) is a Spanish musician, music producer and YouTuber known for promoting the musical arts online.

Biography

Jaime Altozano was born in 1993 [2] in the Ciudad Lineal district of Madrid. [3] He studied piano at the Arturo Soria Professional Conservatory of Music in Madrid, completed two years at the Complutense University of Madrid with a double-major in Mathematics and Physics, [4] and studied music production at Escuela Creativa de Madrid. [5] [6] He started his YouTube channel in May 2017 to provide free, digestable music education videos. [7] The increasing popularity of his videos on musical themes, such as his analysis of soundtracks [8] including The Lord of the Rings trilogy and informative videos about classical music using songs from Pokémon, Dragon Ball, [9] The Beatles and La Oreja de Van Gogh, [10] helped him reach 187,000 subscribers by the end of the year. [11] He doubled that figure five months later. [12]

He collaborated on the Radio Clásica program Música y significado, presented by Luis Ángel de Benito, on which he analyzed the soundtracks of The Lord of the Rings by Howard Shore in 2017 [13] [14] and Star Wars by John Williams in 2018. [15] He has also participated in musical segments on various radio programs including Hoy por Hoy on Cadena SER and He venido aquí a hablar de lo mío on Radio Nacional de España (RNE). [16]

In October 2017, Spanish music lecturer Ramon Gener Sala plagiarized portions of Altozano's analysis in two YouTube videos (De Pokémon a Bach. Una historia de VOCES and Los Miserables: la Mejor Fuga de BACH) during a radio segment entitled Un gesto lo puede cambiar todo (A gesture can change everything). [17] Gener later blamed a collaborator for the plagiarism and said he was not familiar with the work of Altozano. [18]

On December 29, 2017, Altozano live-tweeted a streaming broadcast of La bohème by Giacomo Puccini from Teatro Real in Madrid in an attempt to get more than 100,000 people to watch the stream. [19] In November 2018, he published a video on Rosalía's El mal querer that the singer herself reacted to on Instagram. [20] [21] [22] In 2019 he appeared on the TVE program, "La mejor canción jamas cantada" (The best song ever sung). [23] In February 2019 he made a collaboration video with the Colombian YouTuber Alvinsch, in which both competed to decide who was the best musician, [24] and made another with the YouTuber QuantumFracture in which they collaborated with the Polytechnic University of Madrid to scientifically answer why " Happy Birthday to You" is not playable on the drum. [25] In February 2020 he returned to Spanish television to speak to the contestants of Operación Triunfo 2020 about harmony and composition. [26]
