He does a fair amount of work with international artists (unless you're totally into that scene, which I'm not, you'll probably never hear about these folks). He's great with the Flecktones, but often plays smaller venues like at Jazz clubs with different artists. You gotta go to one of those shows as they're much more personal and usually involves him playing something new. And I personally think Bela plays best when he's doing something completely new and different. I’ve seen Bela about 18 times now, with a variety of people.
