  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    Every time I play with the Symphony Orchestra, Mahler, Schostakovich, Bernstein, Beethoven, Brahms, Tchaikovsky and when I play Brazilian Music on Drums.

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    The search for knowledge.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    I use the Vic Firth AJ1 model most of the time to play drums because it is a balanced pair with the same timbre between the two drumsticks. When I play in the Orchestra, I use Vic Firth on Bass Drum, Gongs and Keyboards as they are the best and most balanced. Vic Firth drumsticks help me express myself better and with less effort.
