Joshua Catania is a Connecticut-based pianist and composer. Joshua is regarded as a multi-faceted composer and improviser, and speaking of his music, Midwest Record writes “Catania is modern, classical, and so much more, often all at once.”  Hailing from Wisconsin, Joshua attended the Kettle Moraine School for Arts and Performance and came up in the Milwaukee music scene where he had several important mentors including Russ Johnson, Brian Lynch, and Devin Drobka. Joshua graduated from the University of Michigan, notably having studied with Andy Milne, Ellen Rowe, and Robert Hurst. Springing out of his collaborations in the Midwest, Joshua released his debut recording “Open To Now” in 2019 under Shifting Paradigm Records with Dave Miller, John Christensen, and Devin Drobka. Today, Joshua actively performs throughout the New England area while also sharing the gift of music as a teacher, author, and piano technician.
