Enrique Gardano’s journey with music began in his native Cuba, flourished in Spain, and rose to full maturity in the US – where he presently resides. His unique interpretative style is born of an intensive technical musical education combined with an innately curious disposition, seasoned by years of listening closely to the music that lives behind and within the notes. He is a well-schooled musician, having obtained a Master’s of Music Degree from the University of Miami and Doctoral Studies at State University of New York at Stony Brooke. His influences range from Jim Hall, Chuck Wayne to Narciso Yepes.
