"The last forty years of collaborating with Joe Fonda - whether swinging on his bass with the American Tap Dance Orchestra, or playing in our avant garde duets across Europe, or having the opportunity to tap dance in his masterpiece composition "From the Source" on CD - have been a constant education, joy, and inspiration. Thanks for the music, Joe!"
