Ric Louchard w/Jordan Glenn, Joshua Marshall, Lisa Mezzacappa

Ric Louchard is a Bay Area composer, pianist, improviser, writer and story teller. His stories are quiet, true and disarmingly personal. His music is emotive and, well, romantic. It tends towards chromaticism, atonality or quirky tonality. Motivic with sometimes complex rhythms. His musical roots are European classical tradition, improvisation, and all the music we’ve all been hearing the last 70 years.
