Gabriel Gomez

Story

Comencé cantando en el coro de la escuela. Música coral, bel canto y popular a los 12 años. Por mis aptitudes de tenor operistico recibí una beca por parte del INBA.(instituto nacional de bellas artes) para estudiar iniciación profesional en piano y canto. Estudie en la EIA no. 3 donde me desempeñe en el coro Luis Sandi bajo el maestro Fernando Carrasco. Me integré a un banda de rock en el 2005 y en el 2006 comenzamos a tocar música propia de la cual yo fui el autor. Estudie sistemas de audio y grabación profesional con Carlos Hugo Aguilar en Uxmalase y yo grabe mis propios demos. He impartido talleres de instrumento, canto y ensamble para alumnos de secundaria y bachillerato. Mi banda se desintegro en el 2009 y no he podido encontrar músicos que se interesen en el proyecto pero he seguido desarrollándolo por mi cuenta. I started singing in the school choir during middle school. Christmas carols, church music and even Opera. I joined a rock band in 2005 and started creating my own music in 2006. I studied sound engeneering with Carlos Hugo Aguilar and I started recording my own demos. I've had private presentations as singer and musician in partiesand cultural events. I taught music workshops and guided rock band ensembes in middle and high school.
