  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    Every concert gives you something new and unique. The Arles Festival in France and the Senegal tournèe in particular were definitely experiences that changed me both as a musician and as a human being. On the educational side the lessons with John Riley were incredibly inspiring.
  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    My creativity is driven by continuous studying, listening to a lot of music and playing with particular attention to how the other musicians are playing in order to create a good interplay, that's the magic of jazz.
  • Why do you choose Vic Firth?

    I always used Vic Firth sticks from the very beginning and always been very happy with them. After having tried every model, I''ve gone back to the 5A barrel tip, currently my favorite.
