Dutch Jazz...and a Didgeridoo Guest Appearance!

While at HIFA, I saw Holland's Mike del Ferro perform on the piano!

Does this guy look familiar? He should! Blessing was one of the best parts of HIFA 2012...

He always seemed to be having so much fun performing at HIFA.

The trio was wonderful, playing a range of jazz. It was beautiful.

Here they are playing a Duke Ellington piece:

In a surprise, Chris Williams joined the trio!

Here's what they sounded like:

Seattle Artists and an Australian Didgeridoo!

The best part about Zimbabwe's Harare International Festival of the Arts (HIFA!)? 

Seeing all the different types of artists!

I had the chance to see Jacob Bain, Chris Williams, and Caleb Cunningham perform.

Here's a peek at their sound:

Jacob Bain...does he look familiar? He should--this is his third visit to HIFA.

He and Caleb Cunningham are from Seattle's Publish the Quest which performed the two previous years.

In a great testament to the many talented artists at HIFA, the three had only met the week before HIFA.
Here's something they come up with for the show:

Australia's Chris Williams.

He plays the didgeridoo and the trumpet. What on earth is the didgeridoo you ask? I confess, I had no idea.

Here's what it sounds like---it was really awesome:

This little old lady was the best fan of all time. The cutest dancer EVER. I want to be 85 and rocking out like her.

Don't believe me? Here's a sneak peek at her mad skills---she literally danced all over the place. So stinking cute.

Caleb Cunningham.

For some reason this shot of Jacob Bain made me laugh for its distortion.

Here's a more respectable shot of him!
