Carlos Fariñas Cantero was a teacher and later colleague of Gustavo's at the Superior Institute for Art in Havana (ISA). Gustavo was probably the 3rd pianist who, at 16 years of age, obtained Fariñas’ well-known tango Altagracia to perform, with direct instruction from its composer. In the meantime Gustavo has recorded several of Fariñas' pieces.
