Anto Ferrante is an Italian composer, guitarist, singer & song-writer who lives in Seattle, Washington. Composing in English, Italian and Sanskrit, his lyrics express his heritage (Italian) and life journey in Italy and West Coast of the United States as well as his love of Buddhism and Eastern philosophies. His multi-instrumental songs are instinctual and melancholic with roots in the Mediterranean. He uses music composition as a therapeutic and contemplative practice to awaken his heart and hold his emotions with compassion. Anto is also the founder and artistic curator of the Zen Arts Group (www.zagseattle.org). Through his music and hosting house concerts Anto wishes to inspire others to explore and express their creativity, embodiment and emotions, and to provide a message of hope (www.zagseattle.org/anto).

Farko Dosumov born and raised in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, started playing music at 14 with strong doses of classic rock and heavy metal, along with a first exposure to jazz and fusion at a local bassist’s jam sessions. Against long odds, Dosumov won a lottery for a green card to come to the U.S., and made his way to Seattle, enrolling for a time at Cornish, where Deardorf helped him develop his jazz foundation. An opportunity to tour with guitarist Danny Godinez beckoned, and Dosumov hasn’t looked back..
