Day/Time: Sunday, April 23 2:30 PM (30 minutes)

Location: Maker's Lounge

Come see the most tacky-yet-amusing innovation in musical instruments
since the inception of key-tar! Project: Trompetelichter is a form of On-Brass Optical Entertainment (or an OBOE as it is uncommonly known) designed to visually delight and distract an audience from a trumpeter's bad-hair, bad-embouchure days, or bad-taste days. Come for the how-to and Q&A, stay for the live jazz!
