Whoa! This section is incomplete for now, sorry!

Tonight was the second-ever performance for this group (here's a review of the first performance, from 10/10/18 in Coolidge Auditorium at the Library of Congress.)

Jaclson Sinnenberg posted a nice interview with Danilo as a preview of that first gig.

Big thanks to Ting for the photo gallery!
