The VSO Day of Music performance by Teapot in the Tuba features a selection of their most recent Jazz and Balkan-influenced mash-ups and originals.

This versatile duo forges music from cherished essentials that fit together perfectly but unexpectedly like a teapot in the bell of a tuba. Mike WT Allen (Composer Director of Space Elevator) on clarinet and Katheryn Petersen (Accordion Noir Festival Director, 2010-2017) on accordion bring formidable composition and improvisation expertise to repertoire that mingles traditional, Jazz, popular and world influences in fabled and original combinations.
