In this special performance, he conjures a unique and compelling sound-world with the help of Ed Hanley (tabla) and Derek Gray (percussion/Tibetan singing bowls). The Free Concert Series in the Richard Bradshaw Amphitheatre is a unique opportunity to experience diverse artistic programming in what has become one of Toronto's most exciting cultural hubs. Amission is on a first-come, first-served basis.
