I am so happy to have premiered the first edition of the VOXtopia festival — featuring Barbatuques, the Indian singer Varijashree Venugopal, Washington DC Christylez Bacon, and Badi Assad. The festival was a huge success and included audience participation, workshops, masterclasses, and a visit to one of Brazil’s most incredible institutions for young children: Lar Sírio Pró infância.
