Ņico Rojas is undoubtedly one of the
most important Cuban composers for guitar. A man with no
academic tuition, he demonstrated that in order to transcend and
be free, the magic of music only requires a sensitive soul and
vocation.
Besides his great talent he was an
exceptional human being; a Cuban who with open arms offered
sympathy, humility and kindness to anyon e with the desire to
learn and admire music. His music gives a glimmer of his human
qualities and the prowess of such sparkling honesty resides in
his capacity to convey feelings.
