Pheeroan and Aska - Hana Dharma:
Hana Dharma is a project that Pheeroan and Aska have developed from performing together for over ten years. Aska has always led a compelling string ensemble. Pheeroan has always used a dynamic sensitivity to orchestrate his percussion. In this work they have expanded their co-composing and improvising with a new triptych by Miho Hazama, to establish a vast creative terrain. After a brief live performance in May of 2018 and some studio time, all other activity was paused due to the pandemic. In 2023 they will be available for concerts.
