Sonority is a reflection of my passion and soul mixed with all the musical influences I have had since I started playing the Tonbak.  After coming to Canada I continued to be influenced by many different genres, which helped shape my personal style of hand drumming.  It feels great to be in a country such as Canada where I am free to express my ideas and thoughts through my art, and the amount of support for artists is unbelievably amazing.
