Thanks to Muruga and members of the GVCB who played each evening!





Badal Roy(above) and Sikiru(below) were two very special guests
for the entire weekend!



Super, special thanks to Giovanni Hidalgo.
No doubt one of the worlds greatest conga players ever..
He added so much to our weekend. Plus he is by far one
of the nicest people we have ever had at NLQP.
So funny at times with his jokes, he had us in tears.
Thanks Giovanni!!!


Giovanni cracking us up after an incredible solo..



And riding at the top of our Rhythmfest was of course drum master
Mr. Airto Moreira(above), his wife world reknown jazz vocalist Flora Purim(below).
Also on vocals their daughter Dianna and the rest of their incredible
band and percussionists. We can not thank them enough.

Airto never slowed down.
What he left us with was a piece of his soul.
Words can not describe.
