BIOGRAPHY
Born in Havana, Cuba, Juan Pablo Subirana's career began at the
age of eight when he attended the Manuel Saumell Conservatory. During
his enrollment at the conservatory he competed in two national piano
competitions, where he received Honorable Mentions.
Juan Pablo continued to pursue his musical career by attending the
Amadeo Roldan Conservatory.
Before immigrating to the United States he performed in various
concerts throughout Cuba including La Sala de Bellas Artes and Teatro
Biblioteca Nacional.
In 1980, Juan Pablo came to the U.S. in the Mariel Exodus. Shortly
after his arrival he was granted a full scholarship to attend Hartford
University in Connecticut, where he received his Bachelors in Music.
While attending that university, Subirana was selected to participate
in the Music Festival in Gerona, Spain.
Upon returning to South Florida, Subirana was awarded a full
scholarship, which allowed him to further his studies and receive a
Masters in Music from the University of Miami under the direction of
the well-known pianist and professor, Teresa Escandon.
Juan Pablo's versatility permits him to interpret not only classical
music, but also contemporary and popular music. He also creates pieces
of his own inspiration; his greatest love is classical music. In order
to reach those who are not familiar with this kind of music he has
selected popular compositions from classical composers and combined
their musical themes to make them more attractive and dynamic, as if
the composers would have been a young Cuban-American male living in
the modern age.
Juan Pablo's main goal in life is to extend the joy of fine music to
the coming generations.
