Adrian J. Portia began his musical career in Australia as a respected percussionist. Bringing dedication and imagination to his craft, Adrian quickly rose to become a world class artist. Over a decade ago, he channeled his creativity into the hand pan, a new millenium instrument that incorporates rhythmic, melodic, and harmonic possibilities. This Toronto concert will feature Adrian on multiple hand pans in duet with two equally innovative musicians. Justin Gray expresses his knowledge of world music, improvisation, and Indian music through the bass veena. Jeimy Osorio fills the airwaves with lyricism, soulfulness, and beauty. Listeners will be invited on a journey that excites the imagination through the ear.
