In 1985, he began to direct and present El mundo de la fonografía in Radio Clásica, a station centered on the area of recorded sound, in discography novelties, historical productions, commemorations and ephemeris, and always evoked through phonographic records. In Radio 1, he was a collaborator of El ojo crítico and, in Radio Exterior, directed En clave de 5. His voice was also habitual in the re-transmissions of the Vienna New Year's Concert for TVE and in the re-transmissions of the concerts of the National Orchestra and Choir of Spain. He wrote several books on the composer Gustav Mahler; in fact, he was considered one of the most important biographers of Mahler in the country. He had dedicated two volumes about his life and his work and also made a complete record inventory of him.[1][2]

He wrote thousands of articles and musical critiques for Ritmo and Scherzo magazines, the Diverdi newsletter, and the ABC, La Razón, and El País newspapers.[3] From 1981 to 1985, he was the director of the Enciclopedia Salvat de la Música.[4]
