“A Wonderful assembly! The performance was captivating. The kids were mesmerized from the time they entered the auditorium. The haunting sounds he played caught their attention and kept them engaged throughout the performance. His music and storytelling tied into our curriculum and we loved that it touched on how different cultures influence each other.”
– Paula O’Brien, West District School, Unionville, CT
