Know About Pablo D. Gómez-Sandro
Pablo D. Gómez-Sandro
Pablo Gómez-Sandro is a composer and professor from Uruguay, South America. From 1990 to 2007, he was the founder, main teacher, and head of Instituto Musical Polimnia, a music school in the capital, Montevideo, and four other cities. Since his early 20s, Pablo’s teaching charisma and tireless dedication took him and his students to high success in electronic keyboard performance in Uruguay, unheard of at the time, crowned by winning in the 2nd and 3rd (last) national electronic keyboard contests carried out in the country.
From 1999 to 2003, he obtained the various accreditations to teach keyboard- performance and music-theory courses, sponsored by Yamaha Music Foundation. In 2004, he participated in Organisimo, an International Festival and Competition on Yamaha Electone keyboards in Palencia (Spain), with him being the only Latin American contestant.
Meanwhile he studied the “Licenciatura en Composición,” a 7-year music composition program at Universidad de la República (Montevideo, Uruguay), which he completed in 2007.
That same year, he emigrated to Shaker Heights, Ohio (United States), where he has resided since. In 2010, he completed a Master of Music in Composition at Cleveland State University, where he studied under composers Andrew Rindfleish and Greg D’Alessio.
Who We Are
My passion for music teaching got me into composition decades ago. I was convinced (and still am) that those who have experienced the inherent challenges and limitations of the musical creation themselves are better equipped to help others understanding the principles of the musical language. Over time, composition took over, and became an indivisible part of my artistic self. A composer that teaches? A teacher that composes? Both!
