Description
Perseverance reflects the life story of Fabio Rojas until 2024. The upbringing in Venezuela for 21 years witnessing the transition from a democratic/prosperous country into a dictatorship, and how it affected every single aspect of life. And 14 years as an immigrant in the US and the fulfilling of many dreams. The name itself is based on the quote: “el que persevera, vence”, which means “he who perseveres, wins”. And this quote has manifested many times in his journey, and how every goal demanded extraordinary hard work, never an easy path. The original compositions are based on this journey, experiences and figures that influenced and inspired him. I hope you enjoy this story as much as he has.
This concert will feature David Bixler on Alto Sax, Gustavo D’Amico on Tenor Sax, Alex Collins on Piano, Dan Loomis on Double Bass and Fabio Rojas on Drums & Compositions.
