Cuban Guitarist Laura Mazon Franqui Signs with Prima Classic for Debut Album

MIAMI, FL - June 24, 2025 - Classical guitarist Laura Mazon Franqui, originally from Havana and now based in Miami, has signed with the distinguished classical music label Prima Classic for the release of her debut solo album, scheduled for early 2026. Singles will begin to roll out later this year.

This milestone marks a significant moment in Mazon Franqui's journey-from arriving in the United States a decade ago with no resources and not even guitar of her own, to now joining the roster of a label known for spotlighting artists with unique voices and uncompromising artistry.

"When I came to the U.S. ten years ago, I had just sold my guitar to afford my plane ticket," Mazon Franqui recalls. "I came with no instrument, but I had a deep sense of purpose. I believed there was space for my voice in this field, and that if I worked hard, I would be able to stand out and make it."

After earning her Masters in Music from the University of Miami under the tutelage of Rafael Padron,and starting her Doctoral Degree at the University of Southern California she built a career as a performer, educator, and advocate for underrepresented voices in classical music, with the guidance of notable mentors and guitar masters along her way, such as Maestro Pepe Romero, Scott Tennant and Adam Levin. Her work frequently highlights Latin American, music of Hispanic descent, and women composers, and she is a fierce advocate for the women in music and women empowerment.

Her forthcoming album with Prima Classic reflects those values. Featuring a bold and intimate program of Hispanic and Latin American works, it honors both the musical heritage she brings from Cuba and the personal path she's charted as an immigrant, artist, and woman in a traditionally male-dominated space.
