I am extremely excited to return to beautiful Tokyo in the middle of the Cherry Blossom Festivities… My quartet, Foreign Affair, featuring Samuel Torres (perc), Christos Rafalides (vibes) and Armando Gola (bass) will be playing 5 gigs in 4 venues around Tokyo, including the famous Mandala (April 2, 3), R2 Ropongi (April 5), Shibuya O-nest (April 6) and Tokyo Main Dining (April 7). Before that I’ll be conducting a workshop with Tokyo University Big Band with concerts on March 30, 31. If you are in Tokyo…
