Born in San Juan, Ferrer began piano lessons early in life with Rosa Sicardó and Ana Otero, later working with Jesús María Sanromá.
With Julio Carlos de Arteaga she studied composition; later, in New York, she took lessons in counterpoint with Arístides Chavier Arévalo and in composition with Gonzalo Núñez Rivera.
[1] Her output consists largely of piano and chamber music, with some sacred and vocal pieces as well.
[2][3] Among her compositions are many danzas, a form which she sought to elevate out of popular culture; she also advocated for the standardization of musical notation within the genre.
