Guillermo Carlos Cazenave

Cazenave's music has already travelled through space during the last trip of the NASA Shuttle Endeavour, on May 16, 2011. His "Fly High" was one of the pieces chosen by the astronauts and technicians.

In 2008, Cazenave started performing live again, giving talks at congresses, recording new albums, writing for magazines like Más Allá de la Ciencia (Beyond Science), where he managed the music section, or in Universo Holístico (Holistic Universe), and appearing on radio programs like Espacio en Blanco, by his friend Miguel Blanco Medrano, in the Spanish national radio (Radio Nacional de España), in a section called From the Cathar Country.

In the late 90s, he relocated to the Cathar Country in the South of France, near Montségur, and began a period of temporary retirement with just the occasional appearance, and few CDs released. In 2007, after an impasse of several years, he reappeared with his album Ser, and with the novel "La Noche del Grial" ("The Night of the Grail"), with prologues by Jean-Luc Robin and Javier Sierra, in which he narrates his experiences in that area.

Among greatest hits and classics of all times, like Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, Imagine by John Lennon and unforgettable songs by U2, Rolling Stones and other English-speaking countries, they selected "Fly High" (Vuela Alto) by the musician Guillermo Cazenave, composed in 1996 for his album "Here" (Aquí).

Between 1984 and 1999, Guillermo Cazenave produced more than 50 albums and sold around 300,000 copies of his work, mainly in the alternative market. It was very common to find him at congresses, symposiums and festivals. He often appeared on the Spanish media, and travelled and performed in countries such as France, England, US or Mexico.

In Sitges in 1983, Guill created the first Spanish new age music record label, and started selling his music on magazines like Integral, Karma 7 and Popular 1.

In 1974, back in Buenos Aires, he made his first professional recording at the ION Recording Studios, with the pianist Antonio Marzochi and the guitarist Kelo Palacios, for a play that was performed for the first time at the San Martín Theatre. Not long after that, Guill returned to New York, and stayed there until May 1977, when he emigrated to Europe, staying for long periods of time between London and Sitges, where he established contact and made friends with musicians such as Anthony Phillips and Miguel Abuelo.

In 1973, Guillermo Cazenave graduated from high school and travelled to the US where he continued composing and recording songs both in Spanish and English, thanks to his bilingual studies at the Newman College.

In 1969, Guillermo started his first pop band with two classmates from the Colegio Cardenal Newman in Buenos Aires, making his debut with a performance at a party, in September of the same year.

In 1963, his older siblings travelled to New York. A while later they returned to Argentina with the first albums by the Beatles, and Guillermo, after seeing the band The Dave Clark Five on television, started playing the drums in 1965, later to study with the drummer and percussionist Sam Lerman.
