Born in Catalonia and brought up in the Basque Country, Juan Padrosa has been for many years the recognised specialist in XXth Century Basque and Spanish repertoire. He has extensively recorded for the Basque Composers archives, the Spanish National Radio Network and ausArt records for whom its has recorded two double albums, one with the complete Nocturnes by Chopin and the other with works by the young Debussy. Likewise he has recorded for us the complete piano works of Tomás Garbizu, two CDs with works by Andrés Isasi and from his archives we have edited one Cd with works by José Luis Iturralde and another with works from the last years of Andres Isasi.
He studied at the San Sebastian Conservatoty and the Higher Conservatory of Music or Paris from where he graduated obtaining the Gold Medal. You can download some free mp3 files of Juan playing Andrés Isasi's Sonata Sabatina from here.
