Cape Symphony & Wellfleet Preservation Hall present Fabiola Méndez!

Fabiola Méndez’s musicality and original compositions take the listener on a journey through her identities and culture, while celebrating and exploring the versatility of the Puerto Rican cuatro, a 5-double string guitar traditional to PR. Recognized for being the first student to graduate from Berklee College of Music with the cuatro as principal instrument (2018), Fabiola performs nationally and internationally, and works as a composer for children’s shows Alma’s Way (PBS Kids) and Sesame Street’s Mecha Builders (HBO Max). She has received numerous awards, including the Quincy Jones Award for composition, WBUR’s ARTery 25, the Brother Thomas Fellowship, Whippoorwill Arts Fellowship, ASCAP Lucille and Jack Yellen Award 2022, and a motion from the Puerto Rican House of Representatives for her work and accomplishments as a cuatrista.

Fabiola Méndez is hosted by “Cape Symphony Presents,” a new event promoting arm of Cape Symphony that provides opportunities to artists by welcoming them through performances to the community of Cape Cod and the Islands.
