Hugo Fernández, Mexican jazz guitarist who has settled in Berlin since 6 years, after more than a decade in Madrid. His musical quest has led him to build his own universe, where the rich legacy of jazz coexists with the energy of other music such as pop-rock, world folklore and classical. At the age of 23, he traveled to Boston to study at Berklee College of Music. In 2003 he moved to New Orleans to study for a master's degree in jazz studies. With five albums to his credit, he has performed at venues and festivals in Mexico, Spain and in Germany, increasingly carving a niche for himself on the jazz scene in the rest of Europe.
His latest Ep. “Crossing” (2024) recorded in Berlin, has 6 compositions in a duo format featuring 6 different artists with a special voice coming from distinct musical backgrounds. The compositions were conceived as small sketches that would develop freely with the interplay of the musicians. “his compositions appear in music with widely varied elements of folk forms, Western classical music, and even pop, informing his deep jazz sensibility. they embrace a musical world that could be a prospective vision of jazz" - Haus der Kulturen der Welt, HKW Berlin.
