“Brave … so amazing … deep respect” (Jerry Granelli), “spiritual … powerful,” (Christos Hatzis), “brilliant … extraordinary” (Mike Murley), “mesmerizing … hypnotic” (John D.S. Adams), are a few of the reactions to Dani’s debut solo album  (Present in Nature).

Dani has earned a JUNO nom (Canada), a 1st place JAZZKI Award (Germany), and multiple ECMA awards & noms (Canada) for Jazz, Electronic music, Classical, and Instrumental Recordings of the year …as a member of: the Jerry Granelli Trio (Let Go! & What I Hear Now, Plunge & Addo; “extraordinary” Jazz Chronicles); a team of scientists from Vector, Dalhousie, and U of Toronto;  his acoustic duo with Sageev Oore (Radical Cycle, CBC; “stunning” & “masterful” Classical Modern Music Review), and his acoustic duo with Florian Hoefner (The Ecstasy of Becoming, Alma; “joyous” & “stunning” Mark Lomanno Month in Review).

Danny’s music is featured in over twenty specials for CBC and Bravo in collaborations with artists across different traditions and disciplines, including orchestral commissions and soundtracks for award-winning director Jasmine Oore.

Daniel also works internationally as an actor and choreographer-dancer.
