I attended Claudio's afternoon ( 1 hour) concert yesterday. I enjoyed it very much, specially the popular Latin hits, Besa Me Mucho, el Choklo, Jealousy Tango, Sway ChaCha and other old time Latin favorites that reminded me of my younger years in the Philippines. Here's the flyer misspelling Claudio's last name.

Claudio is the driving piano sound behind Jazzmatazz and is filled with excitement and enthusiasm for the band. He like Rodney Burge is also an experienced master of the Left Hand Bass and thus doubles on Bass for the band. Claudio looks forward to lasting success with Jazzmatazz. He is also excited and ready to share his gift of piano playing with all the Jazzmatazz supporters and fans.
