This trio teams two top-notch improvisers from the vibrant Chicago 
music community with one luminary of European improvised music. A major 
player in his native Germany since the 1970s and frequently appearing 
on the roster of important labels like FMP and Moers Music, bassist 
Torsten Müller worked regularly in duo with trombonist/cellist Günter 
Christmann and in countless other all-star ensembles before relocating 
to Vancouver in 2001. His innovative extended techniques draw an 
astonishing array of unexpected sounds from the acoustic bass. Last 
seen in Seattle at the 2003 Seattle Improvised Music Festival, it will 
be a treat to welcome him again. Joining him are Michael Zerang and 
Fred Lonberg-Holm, both major figures in the Chicago scene who share a 
mutual chemistry forged through frequent collaboration as a duo. 
Lonberg-Holm is perhaps the hardest working cellist in Chicago, whether 
it's for contemporary chamber music, wild rockin' with God is My 
Co-Pilot, alt country with Freakwater, art-pop with Jim O'Rourke, or 
free jazz with legendary screamers like Peter Brötzmann or vocalist 
Jaap Blonk. Similarly, Zerang bangs on things with everyone of note who 
lives in or passes through the Windy City, as well as acting as a 
tireless organizer of concerts.

And don't forget about the fabulous Olympia Festival of Experimental 
Musics this weekend, featuring a stellar line-up of local luminaries 
and visiting celebs. Hey, it's a perfect weekend getaway and not so far 
away.
