Zubin's father, Late Kenneth Gibson was the Founder Conductor of the THE TABERNACLES, and Zubin received his early musical education from him. When he was 5, he enrolled him under Late Mrs. Surti who was an acoomplished Pianist and later got trained under Mrs. Indira Chary before he moved to a boarding school at Karunya situated at Coimbatore, Tamilnadu.His mother Susan though not from a music background, encouraged him and wanted him to excel in Church music.
