Come join us for a wonderful afternoon of music by the town square in Georgetown.
Meet Rique Pantoja, a multi-talented composer, arranger, songwriter, singer, and jazz pianist hailing from Rio de Janeiro. With over two decades of experience based in Los Angeles, Rique is in great demand worldwide.
Rique's journey began when he moved to Boston at the young age of 19 to study at the prestigious Berklee College of Music. He then traveled to Paris to work with legendary American jazz trumpeter Chet Baker before returning to Brazil, where he quickly gained acceptance among notable artists in the Brazilian music scene such as Milton Nascimento, Ivan Lins, Gilberto Gil.
