"This is a testimony to my free-spirited brothers in the musical realms."
In December 2024, at Berklee College of Music’s drum department, Jowee Omicil and Francisco Mela crossed paths for a spontaneous musical encounter. What began as an impromptu moment quickly transformed into an electrifying improvisation session—two master musicians engaging in a deep conversation through sound. Jowee, weaving soulful melodies on alto sax and surprising textures on piano, and Mela, igniting the space with his rhythmic fire on drums, created a fusion of their conversational spirit—pure musical alchemy in the heart of Berklee.
