WOW! Performing at Jazzmandu 2009 with Trio Urbano was an incredible experience! We met fantastic musicians from all over the world and played at wonderful venues. The most magical performance was the Jazz in Patan show--a musical fusion in the best sense of the word, held in the courtyard of a museum on Patan's Durbar Square. All the Jazzmandu musicians joined forces with local Nepali musicians for an unforgettable evening. Nepal and its people are amazing!
We are thrilled to be performing as part of this incredible festival in Katmandu! Stop by if you're in the neighborhood . . .
