Come join us next Tuesday night as the brass players bring their shine to the Hamms Brewery! Stefan Kac (tuba) and Geoff Senn (trumpet) will be premiering two brand new HOUSE OF MIRRORS compositions written especially for them. They are extraordinary players, not to be missed!
In addition, Thelma Stone, who was among the last families to live in Swede Hollow before the City of Saint Paul burned it to the ground on December 11, 1956, will be sharing her stories.

Welcome to HOUSE OF MIRRORS!
From October 2010 through March 2011 my musical installation project HOUSE OF MIRRORS will be up and running at the old Hamms Brewery in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Located on the edge of historic Swede Hollow in a 1,390 sq. ft. space in the red brick building, HOUSE OF MIRRORS will feature extraordinary performances by Twin Cities musicians in a context they've never been heard. In addition, performance events will include the participation of original residents of Swede Hollow in a rare opportunity to hear their stories as they come alive in the sound world of the installation.
Much more information to come! I will be posting a calendar of performances, historical information about Swede Hollow, and lots of interesting pictures and videos. Please sign up and join me!
