In addition, he performed a concert of all Brazilian music with the UT Martin percussion ensemble and wind ensemble, which is directed by Dr. Nola Jones. The closing selection on the program was a world premiere composed by Hill entitled, “Lembrancas,” featuring Hill and Rosauro as soloists. Plus, Rosauro, Hill and the 13 members of the percussion ensemble performed a “tour of schools” in the Jackson area, presenting Brazilian percussion workshops to regional high school and middle school students. This was done in association with the Jackson Symphony, co-sponsors of the tour.
