Festival highlights include three generations of Synergy Percussion, including Synergy's founder Michael Askill to share the stage at the Town Hall Concert.
International artists Kaoru Watanabe (Silk Road Ensemble, Kodo) Nacho Mena (Ornette Coleman, Marvin Gaye, Pat Martino, Don Cherry) and Art Music pioneer Fritz Hauser beaming in from the USA and Europe to give insights into their approach to music making.

This is followed by the BOOM! Closing concert featuring Circle of Rhythm, Gai Bryant's Afro-latin powerhouse Caribé and from Columbia ex Taikoz and Cirque du Solei artist Anton Lock with Tick Tick Boom!
