On Thursday, March 19 at 7:30pm, Tom's Place presents

Carl Ludwig Hübsch (tuba) with Kyle Bruckmann (oboe) and Gino Robair (percussion)
and
Per-Anders Nillson (electronics) with Phillip Greenlief (sax) and Gino Robair (percussion)

Carl Ludwig Hübsch started out playing the clarinet. 32 years ago he came to his senses and switched to the tuba (my favorite instrument!) His improbable approach to the instrument is mostly indescribable, so here's a couple of video samples:

It'll be a challenge, but Kyle Bruckmann and Gino Robair should be able to keep up with him.

Swedish electronic improviser Per Anders Nilsson is an old friend of Tom's Place, and we're pleased to be able to host him again. Per Anders plays electronic instruments of his own design. We love the noisy, chaotic sounds he gets, and the incredibly expressive playing that his designs enable. Here's a clip of him playing with Palle Dahlstedt (his partner in duo pantomorf) and Tim Perkis a couple of years ago: http://vimeo.com/10341016 Tonight his trio partners will be Phillip Greenlief and Gino Robair.
