| Duduka Da Fonseca & Brazilian Jazz All Stars appearing at Jazz at Kitano August 2nd & 3rd Sets 8 & 10 PM Three Time Grammy Award Nominated Brazilian Drummer Duduka Da Fonseca & Brazilian Jazz All Stars Scott Robinson - sax & flute Helio Alves - piano Peter Washington - bass Duduka Da Fonseca - drums Appearing at Jazz at Kitano August 2nd & 3rd Sets 8 & 10 pm "Duduka is a fantastic drummer, he has worked with me and I love the way he plays." Antonio Carlos Jobim "Duduka Da Fonseca had the flowing beat doing his bidding, making one dance while sitting down. A master of "Brasilient" rhythms, he is equally capable of grooving a jazz 4/4 with his great, loosey-goosey swing." Ira Gitler, American jazz historian and journalist "Duduka Da Fonseca is one of the very few drummers, or perhaps the only drummer, who has found his own unique voice by combining the two traditions. His command of Brazilian and American rhythms and his ability to integrate them so seamlessly is truly innovative. With music in mind, Sincerely, " Billy Hart "The Brazilian percussionist Duduka Da Fonseca, a key member of Trio Da Paz, may be the most impressive jazz-besotted Brazilian percussionist since Airto Moreira. He balances tropical rhythms and swing with uncommon ease."
