About
I’m Ena Longares, a pianist, composer, songwriter and music educator working between Valencia and Delhi.
My musical journey began with classical piano training and later expanded into contemporary music and music production through studies at Berklee in 2017.
Over time, I developed a deep interest in storytelling, improvisation and the emotional possibilities of music. My work moves between original songs, piano-based composition, teaching and selected creative collaborations.
Alongside my own artistic projects, I’ve also worked across songwriting, performance, accompaniment, notation and interdisciplinary work. At the centre of it all is a strong commitment to expression, listening and creativity.
On this website, you can explore my music, piano teaching and selected creative projects.
