Fabrizio’s plans

This union of Pintos and Rodríguez was not the first time they met on the stage of the Opera House, but had previously always been in Abel’s recitals.

As Fabricio said, “It was a joy, because I always had to accompany him. That’s why, when I invited him, I told him that I had accompanied him countless times to the Opera, but this time I wanted him to accompany me in one “.

It was also the first time in his entire career that Fabricio set foot on that stage with one of his shows, accompanied by his entire band and with exceptional guests.

-Do you think there is more desire to see live music than before the pandemic?

– I notice that activity has resumed. When we finished the tour in 2020 we were with a lot of projects and other perspectives. Now he turned, but with the prospect of the situation in the country. That is why it is no longer the same as before. There are many municipalities that have been severely punished economically and emotionally. I think we had to go back a long way.

-What comes after the Opera?

-A tour in the United States to do 10 shows in 10 days, including playing at a very nice festival in Washington DC, where we had already been in 2018 and 2019. It will be a very nice adventure and they are new challenges.

-What kind of rooms are these recitals in?

-Some shows are in clubs organized by Argentines who want to keep Argentine music alive there. And the most interesting thing is that they are not only Argentines, but people from all over Latin America and Yankees who like our music and dance zambas and chacareras. And when we return we will visit the interior of the country. Thank God, the year is coming up well.
