UPPER LAKE >> The Tallman Hotel in Upper Lake concludes its 2017 series of “Concerts with Conversation” on Saturday, April 8, with an informal concert by Bob Culbertson, one of the worlds’ true masters of the intricate instrument called the Chapman Stick. Culbertson will be accompanied by percussion virtuoso Rick Alegria.
The event starts at 7:30 p.m. in the Meeting House next to the Hotel.
“If you know Bob and his music, this is a great opportunity to hear him interact with a world-class percussionist,” commented Tallman owner Bernie Butcher. “And if you haven’t been exposed to the truly unique Chapman Stick instrument, this will be an unforgettable experience.”
With well over 100,000 albums sold, and many students to his credit, Culbertson has become one of the most influential Stick soloists in the world today. An early adaptor of the Chapman Stick, he is famous not only for his technique on the instrument but for his compositional talent.
Concert tickets at $25 plus tax may be purchased by calling the Tallman Hotel at 707-275-2244 ext. 0. More background information on Bob Culbertson can be found at www.stickmusic.com and on Rick Alegria at www.rsamusic.com.
