Joining the Humber group will be Joseph Manzoli (guitar), Caili O�۪Doherty (piano), Isaac Haselkorn (drums) and Shin Sakaino (acoustic bass), a jazz quartet from the Berklee Global Jazz Institute, Boston.
Shohei Yamaki and fulare_pad from the Sapporo Jazz Festival, Japan, will round things out. Yamaki, who performs solo on acoustic guitar, prides himself on being able to create a dazzling array of sounds. fulare_pad consists of Daisuke Maeda on ukulele and Hideyuki Shimizu on guitar. With three albums under their belt, the two are creating a niche for themselves as featured performers in cafes and music theatres throughout Japan.
According to Cathy Mitro, Community Music School, ���The groups all get together at Humber the day before the performance for an informal workshop and jam session. It's a fantastic opportunity for some very talented young Canadians to work with their counterparts from around the world.�
