About Juan Pablo Balcázar
Balcázar’s official biography describes a Colombian-born, Barcelona-adopted musician working on electric and acoustic bass. It documents study at Taller de Músics and Conservatori del Liceu, a University of Barcelona master’s degree, and teaching at the Liceu professional program.[1]
The official project and discography pages separate leader groups from sideman work across jazz, improvised music, Latin American traditions, pop, and hip-hop. Quiet Thinking, Otro Quatour Pour La Fin Du Temps, and Suite Resbalosa are presented as distinct recent projects.[2][1][3]
