… and from Hamburg Michael Droese and Robert Müller.

Michael was a member of the bata group"Grupo Ayé Ilú" with Thomas Altmann (look on his very exciting website) and Kai Voigtlaender - a soundclip can be heard on this site: http://www.ochemusic.de/tabatade.htm

David will stay some days and wants to make some video-clips on cajon, using the equipment of the area. Here are some of his well-known clips at YouTube:

Valter comes to Kiel in order to meet his endorser David for the first time. His cajon-clips are also quite known. This is from a promotion-event in 2008:

For meValter was also one of the most impressing musicians at the Horner Cajon-Festival 2008 - here his duett with Jorge Palomo, the player with the best cajon-technique I ever have seen live.
