🆕 The virtual music walks with me continue with this international collaboration - idea of my dear friend - percussionist from Berklee College - Arturo Pena , who is on a music team with his talented colleagues from New York. This time Brazilian music and more precisely the great Antonio Carlos Jobim united us, and we also unknowingly have matched the colors of our clothes 😇😄🌈🌞🌊🎶🎶🎶⬇️⬇️
" Brigas Nunca Mais " or..." No more fights "
Arturo Pena - percussion, audio and video editing
Vesela Morova - voice
Alec Castro - keyboard, melodica
Jhoe Garay - guitar
Edwin Camilo - bass
I watched the other day! Very cool! I encourage others to check it out!
