Biography
Rui Filipe Pereira Nunes is a clarinettist at USO, backed by a Master of Arts in Music Performance from the Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana di Lugano (class of Jordi Pons).
He began his musical journey at age six in the Coral Harmonia of Santiago do Cacém, studying clarinet from age ten at the Filarmónica União Artística de Santiago do Cacém with Nelson Caetano, while also studying at the Escola de Artes de Sines with Gonçalo Conceição. He continued with Sérgio Coelho and Inês Nunes, later studying with Hugo Figueiredo at the Escola Profissional Metropolitana. At the Academia Nacional Superior de Orquestra he completed his degree in the class of Nuno Silva, and after that attended a free course in Lisbon with Iva Barbosa. He has also begun a Master in Music Pedagogy at the same Swiss institution.
His collaborations span orchestras such as Orchestra Le Nove, the Orchestra Sinfonica del Conservatorio della Svizzera Italiana and the Orquestra Metropolitana de Lisboa, working with conductors including Christoph König, Johan de Meij and Jean-Marc Burfin.
At USO he brings a clear affinity for contemporary repertoire and an interdisciplinary curiosity—project work connecting music with theatre, poetry and song, alongside studio recordings for Isto é o Vento by Hugo Costa.
