The ensemble is known for its unique blend of classical and contemporary music, and its ability to captivate audiences with its dynamic performances. The founding members of Armonia Ensemble were four young musicians who shared a passion for classical music and a desire to create something new and exciting. The members were Pablo Ferrández (cello), David Apellániz (double bass), Daniel del Pino (piano), and Leticia Moreno (violin).

They began by experimenting with different arrangements and interpretations of classical pieces, and soon began incorporating contemporary music into their performances. One of the highlights of Armonia Ensemble's early career was their performance at the 2006 Festival Internacional de Música y Danza de Granada. The ensemble received critical acclaim for their performance of works by Beethoven, Brahms, and Shostakovich, as well as their innovative interpretation of Astor Piazzolla's "Libertango". The performance was a turning point for the ensemble, and helped to establish them as one of the most exciting and innovative classical music ensembles in Spain.
