I had the pleasure and of performing with Carlos over the years. His encouragement, grace, and understanding of the music world, both in the industry and in ensemble form, was unmatched. His positivity and laugh was contagious, filling the room as much as his musicianship did. Thank you for the fond memories and kind words over the years, you are so missed!
