My visit will include teaching and performance at the federal university UFBA, a week long exchange with Olodum (Paul Simon, Michael Jackson) AND a solo appearance at the international percussion festival "Festival de Percussão" hosted at UFBA. This trip is sponsored by the PARTNERS of the AMERICAS program and I will be hosted by Jorge Sacramento, professor of percussion at UFBA. I will be creating a blog with a link from this site. MARASSA DUO we have begun the process of recording the next MARASSA DUO CD! It will be produced by good friend and percussionist extraordinaire/ recording guru RAY DILLARD. Quite a pleasure working with such a master. We recently finished a short run out in Ontario, Canada. Next step is setting recording dates and keep plugging along. Join us on facebook!
