Born in Rio de Janeiro in 1983, Fabiano do Nascimento
studied classical piano and music theory as a young boy. From the time he
played his first notes on the guitar at age twelve, he devoted himself to that
instrument. Fabiano was born into a musical family, a lineage that goes back to
his great-grand-father “Ladario Teixeira”. Who was a Blind virtuoso saxophone
player, who contributed to the creation of the instrument itself, re-inventing
the saxophone, adding more keys to the older “Aldolph Sax” version of the
saxophone. More about Ladario Teixeira can be found in the encyclopedia BARSA.
Fabiano Studied with Dalmo Motta at the Conservatorio de Musica Brasileira in
Rio de Janeiro, and with his Uncle, the Late Lucio Nascimento in his early
teenage years.
Always fascinated by Brazilian music and American jazz. Self-taught, through intense research and practice, developed exceptional skill. In 2000, Fabiano left Brazil for California, Los Angeles, where he soon became in demand for his authentic sound. Connected early with the Woodwind player Pablo Calogero, and Percussionist Tiki Passillas, forming “Triorganico”. Brazilian flavored, Latin Jazz trio, recording their first album Triorganico – Convivencia under the Label of “Stonesthrow and Now-Again”. Also recorded and worked with many artists including Airto Moreira, Mia Doi Todd, Aloe Blacc, Sumiko Fukatsu, Ted Falcon, Arthur Verocai, Draco Rosa, Justo Almario, Ronaldo Freitas (Carioca), Pablo Fagundes, Sam Gendel, and many more …
