Great Global Fusion

Just returned from Muscat, Oman where I had the pleasure of performing with a stellar group of extraordinary musicians.
The event was hosted by Bank Sarasen Alpen who provided us this rare opportunity to bring together such a talented group from Hungary, India, Iran, Germany. Liberia, Oman and the USA. Check out these photos.

Joining us from India is sitarist Niladri Kumar who was featured on my first Summit recording and will also appear my my next CD scheduled for release this spring as well as Bollywood percussion superstar A. Sivamani. There will also be appearances by Hungarian violinist, Zoltan Lantos and the Ensemble Shanbehzadeh from Iran. Hope to post some photos on my return.

Welcome to my new Website

I’ve just launched my new website, built on the WordPress platform with the guidance of my Web Guru, Tim Ware of HyperArts Web Design, in Oakland, CA. I’ll be using the blog to talk about my new CDs and projects, those of my musical colleagues, as well as miscellaneous posts about concerts, or whatever. Stay tuned!
