ABOUT THE ARTIST 
 

Internationally recognized, Balanyà is a pianist, composer, conductor of improvising orchestras, sound artist, painter and photographer. 

Josep-Maria Balanyà, born in Barcelona, with more than 40 years on stage, 28 albums recorded and more than 140 works, has taken him from classical music and jazz to his specialization into the field of improvisation and new contemporary music, experimental music and performance.

Josep-Maria Balanyà explores the limits of music in his compositions and performances. He is particularly interested in the combination of different arts and the transfer of art into music. Mainly, his own art plastic production focuses on abstract paintings in which he uses mixed media, but especially acrylic on canvas.

In order to expand and deepen his preoccupation with the fine arts and also with the craft material, he studied painting and etching at the European Academy of Fine Arts in Trier (Europäische Kunstakademie Trier) / Germany.

Under the auspices and organization of the head of the Academy, Dr. Gabriele Lohberg, Balanyà performed for many years a series of interactive concert-performances in the Kunsthalle of the Academy, where fine arts were combined with music and performance.

Works of BALANYÀ are now in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in Tarragona and in private collections.
