Dear friends,
FESAAM 2011 (Festival of African & African-American Music) kicks off March 31 with rehearsals by all performing artists, followed by two days of concerts and lecture-recitals. Looking forward to seeing some of you in St Louis, and with much gratitude for your good wishes. If you're unable to make St Louis, MO, remember we reconvene this summer in Lome, Togo, July 27-31.
