Kit Walker
"the Henry Thoreau of Jazz" Jazziz Magazine
Keyboard innovator Kit Walker thrives on new musical
horizons. Although he was in his early years classically
trained as a pianist, pipe organist, and composer, Kit
wasn’t content to stop there. His musical and spiritual
explorations have taken him through a universe of styles
and sounds, and he spent many years working with and
developing his own personal slant on each of them. His
groundbreaking albums for Windham Hill Jazz, “Dancing on
the Edge of the World”, and “Fire in the Lake”, released in
the late 80’s, helped to broaden the spectrum of
contemporary jazz.

Celso Alberti
Celso Alberti was born in Curitiba, Southern Brazil. The
driving rhythms of his country’s music led him to develop
an early interest in the drums and by the age of 17, he was
performing regularly as a professional. In 1982 he decided
to expand his musical horizons and moved to the US where he
has been living since.
His dynamic drumming style, blending traditional Brazilian
music with World and Rock influences, was quickly
recognized and he soon started to work with musicians like
Herbie Mann, John Lucien, Michael Manring, Airto Moreira,
Flora Purim, Jose Neto and most recently the legendary
Steve Winwood.
Celso is also a respected audio engineer and holds
production credits on Airto Moreira’s latest album as well
as with Kundalini Boombox.
