DVD

After a very long and successful association with Salon Music in Pretoria, I was invited to participate in the making of a DVD. It is called Celebration, and was launched to celebrate their 15 years of success. I am one of 19 SA artists who feature on this DVD, and who have all worked closely with Salon Music. My track is La Cumparsita.
