About
Award-winning, Latin American singer/songwriter Fernando Ortega is coming to the Music Factory for just 3 performances!
In the early 1990s, young composer and pianist Fernando Ortega, classically trained and musically complex, entered the Christian music scene. His distinctively earthy sound perplexed and even defied the pop status quo. Descended from eight generations of Mexican weavers, this son of the Rio Grande entwined thoughtful melodies with Celtic, bluegrass, classical and Latin American influences to create something unique and rare.
Today, Fernando is one of Christian music’s most respected artists. With three Gospel Music Association Dove Awards and a Billboard Latin Music Award to his credit. Renowned for his stirring arrangements of beloved hymns, his solo discography features 18 projects in a heralded career spanning more than 25 years.
Tickets are $45.00 in advance and $50.00 at the door. Seating is general admission and doors open at 6:30 PM. Event begins at 7PM. Concessions will be available for sale during the concert. Tickets at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/fernando-ortega-in-concert-tickets-394819986207
