Yaroski Corredera

 

 

(Havana city, January 17th, 1971)

...is very similar to Govín regarding the mixing of different jobs; however, his great virtue is the perseverance.

He began his electric guitar studies very young and he did it in an autodidactic way.

By late eighties, he joined the local heavy metal band Sacramento. In the beginnings of the following decade, he enrolled himself in the study of classical guitar in Conservatorio Ignacio Cervantes; nevertheless, with the crisis of the nineties in Cuba, he had to work to support his own family and quit his studies.

Parallelly, he attended a course to be technician in maintenance and reparation of automobiles.

After that, he started being an apprentice in the construction of musical instruments principally guitars in a workshop.

Here, he learnt how to be a luthier under the guidance of the Mexican teacher Abel García, from Paracho, 

and ‘till our days, he hasn’t stopped making instruments, such as guitars, tres (typical Cuban small guitar) and lutes, all of them labeled with his name.

While he was learning this new art, he retook his musical career, and in 1994, he joined one of the most influential band in the metal scene: Agonizer.

This grouping played death trash, and Yaroski began playing lead guitar by that time. Being with this new band, he composed very important songs and recorded the album Bless the Innocence (2004), embarking himself in a tour along the island in which he participated in festivals and gave mass concerts.

Eleven years later, when his friend Osvi Vieites left the band, he also said farewell to Agonizer, and in 2005, they joined Anima Mundi.

Here, they decided to record the second CD of the band Jagannath Orbit, and with this production Yaroski clearly showed his gift as bassist.
