Josué Bonnín de Góngora was born in Madrid in 1970. At the age of eight he received his first piano lessons from his father. Soon after that, he starts writing his first compositions, like the "Waltz in C minor", a piece where his characteristic expressiveness can already be perceived, and two groups of works that he finishes during the next years: the "Poems" and the "Tales of Solitude".
In 1992 he completes his formal piano studies and makes his debut at Madrid's  San Juan Bautista concert hall, where he performs his own music along with works from Schubert and Chopin. By then he has already drafted two sonatas and the first movement of a piano concerto, and he devotes himself to composition.

Since his debut, he has been present in all the musical seasons of the Spanish capital, with concerts where he plays his own work as well as music of other composers, particularly Beethoven and Chopin. So far, he has given more than 300 concerts, participating in many Festivals around Spain, like the Pollensa Festival (Majorca), the Music Festival of Cartaya, Madrid's Christmas Concerts... Some of the concert halls where he has presented his music are Madrid's Centro Cultural de la Villa, Reina Victoria Theater, ONCE Foundation, Bohemios Theater, Centro Cultural Conde Duque, Casa de Vacas del Retiro, Príncipe de Asturias Theater, Canal Foundation, and the Ateneo. He has also given educational concerts at Madrid's major Universities. He has been awarded with the Candil Award 1995 for his work "Poem to Maria Luisa" and with the Cultura Viva Award 2006. He has also received several awards from Madrid's city council, thanking him for his close participation in the capital's cultural life.

His music has been published on three CDs, two of them with his piano work played by him, and the third one with his work "Poem to Maria Luisa Park", for piano, guitar and cello.

My idea is that there is music in the air, music all around us; the world is full of it,
and you simply take as much as you require.
