'Musical performance rides the current
of what’s swirling around us, embracing a diversity of ways
in which we can grapple with the world around us.'
Postcards
It's been my greatest privilege to perform in some of greatest clubs with
some of the greatest musicians
at home in Toronto, Canada and around the world.
Welcome to the music that’s my world! I’ve been truly blessed to have performed with such marvellous musicians throughout my career – Thank you all.
My long-time friend and musical conspirator Kevin Barrett is, quite simply, a gifted accompanist.
George and I have made beautiful music together for a very long time, and still every time we perform together it’s new and wonderful.
A big thanks to the boys in the band: Christophe Le Van, Philippe Le Van, Philippe Gourgaud, Philippe Martel
Performing with the musicians of the Cairo Symphony and for the people of Egypt will forever be one of my joyful memories.
What’s not to like. Italy and singing at the Turnio Jazz Club. What a trip!!
