A door to Ecuador – A kidnapping drove him to Boston, music brought him home – Alex Alvear
Tagged: Boston, Ecuador, MassachusettsPosted on: November 12th, 2007
Alex Alvear has always known where home is. He just wasn’t sure how to get there.
Now, more than two decades after he left his native Ecuador and settled in Boston, the bassist, singer and composer has found the compass he needs: his own music.
“Revisiting my country’s music has shined a different light on it all for me,” said Alvear, who celebrates the release of his new CD, “Equatorial,” with a concert Thursday at the South End’s Center for Latino Arts, where he serves as performance and production manager and is the longtime producer of its Cafe Teatro series.”*
