From here he did not stop studying, going through the piano and then the guitar.

In Germany, Pablo has developed cross projects for the Altonaer Theater Kammerspiel in Hamburg, SeeLive Tivoli, the Bochum Philharmonic Choir, the Niederrhein Festival, the Mercator Ensemble of the Duisburg Philharmonic, the New Westphalian Philharmonic and Classical Beat festival.
