OUR ARTISTIC DIRECTOR

Bonilla's success as a sideman with such greats as McCoy Tyner, Dizzy Gillespie, Lester Bowie, Tom Harrell, Freddie Hubbard, Astrud Gilberto, Willie Colon and Toshiko Akiyoshi attests not only to the skill and variety of his talent but also to a mind restlessly committed to exploring some of the most complex and demanding music of our time.
