Biography
Hola, my name is SaSa, short for Salomé Sandoval. I am a singer and multi-instrumentalist who is passionate about creating engaging and entertaining concerts for all audiences, through storytelling, singing and self-accompanying with guitars and lutes; sometimes I play on my own, some other times with groups, in artistic multimedia and
multi-lingual performances.
Salomé Sandoval (SaSa) is a vocalist, guitarist, and historical instrumentalist specializing in early music. Her musical practice spans vocal repertoire, classical guitar, lute, vihuela, and Baroque guitar, bringing together a broad range of historical traditions and collaborative performance experiences. With an artistic background encompassing early music ensembles, opera, choral performance, solo and instrumental collaboration, she has performed with distinguished groups and organizations in the United States and Venezuela such as Boston Camerata, The Newberry Consort, Raleigh Camerata, El Mundo and Camerata de Caracas.
In addition to performing, SaSa has extensive experience in ensemble direction and artistic leadership. She directed the Monteverdi Ensemble in TN and El Fuego Early Music Ensemble in MA and NC. Her work reflects a commitment to historically informed interpretation, collaborative music-making, and the exploration of music across cultures and traditions in multimedia presentations. Recent endeavors such as “Pluck Lot”, a hybrid social and educational podcast for the Lute Society of America, aims to connect and highlight artists across genres. “Pluck Lot” received a 2026 Early Music America Engagement Award.
