He has already wowed audiences at live performances in Europe and South America. He had the great honour to be the soloist, in 2018, of a special Jaco Pastorius tribute with Latvian Radio Big Band, in Riga.

Anna-Maria Hefele
Tonight’s concert will open with a small taste of one of the most unique artists you are likely to hear, the astonishing overtone singer, Anna Maria Hefele. Overtone singing is a fascinating vocal technique where it seems like one person is singing two notes at the same time. This happens by filtering and amplifying the harmonics that are contained in the sound of the human voice through specific and precise modulations of the tongue and the vocal tract.
