Gonjaba LIVES!
Performing with Amasong May 4th & 5th was dreamy--I do hope they want puppets in the future!
The Gonjaba "ugly doll" was VERY well received. I loved performing in the McKinley Sanctuary, too. What a lovely, spirited space!
Here is a nice picture of the Gonjaba in the sanctuary:

and in performance (light was low, so we couldn't get stellar photos while I was moving with it):

I like the audience faces in this one!
I also had the pleasure of meeting Rocky Maffit who played with and composed a piece for Amasong at this concert. Perhaps there will be music-puppet collaborations in the future...?

It was a delight to perform together! The Gonjaba is magnificent and primal, and added so much to the song.

It makes me sad to keep missing these events. That Gonjaba is nice. Really digging the "natural" look to it.
