Hamilton's playing and improvising transcend limitations and genres. Today he travels to the different corners of the planet "bringing his heart to his fingertips" performing his own compositions with his signature sound. He interacts with other music traditions, ensembles, and instruments. This allows him to be invited to be the guest soloist of Wynton Marsalis and his Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra or to perform his own compositions with Symphony orchestras from around the world; from Rock/Pop Festivals to Dave Mathews Band at The Gorge; from The Central Park Summer Stage in New York City to The Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro; from noble museums like The Smithsonian in Washington or the Grand Palais in Paris to the famous Carnival in Rio.
He has performed in Australia, Paris, Germany, Amsterdam, Rome, Norway, Los Angeles and other countries, cities and festivals around the world.
