To say that Leo Blanco subscribes to just one musical role would be insufficient. At his piano, he reveals his profound academic musical training. His Andean origin (he was born in Merida, Venezuela) injects itself into his work as a composer as well as other Venezuelan, South American, African, world music and jazz musical influences.

To refer to Leo Blanco it is also necessary to describe his powerful drive, which eventually led him to emigrate from The Andes to Caracas and later to the United States and to collaborate musically with artists such as Terence Blanchard, Chucho Valdés, João Bosco, Gonzalo Rubalcaba, Luciana Souza, Bob Moses y Dave Samuels, among others.
