Borrow a car and go to him!

From Chicago:

University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI--146 Miles (2 Hours 13 Minutes)
Lawrence University, Appleton, WI--192 Miles (2 Hours 55 Minutes)
Illinois State University, Normal, IL--133 Miles (2 Hours)
University of Illinois, Urbana, IL--139 Miles (2 Hours 10 Minutes)
Indiana University, Bloomington, IN--228 Miles (4 Hours)

Other factors may come into play for your choice of location/date.

Oh...he'll stop in Chicago or else........

The time has changed for my program in Athens. The recital is now at 8:00 instead of 7:30.

In a moment strangely reminiscent of my military career, one of our administrators vetoed the 7:30 time because "Faculty recitals are at 8:00, not 7:30". Okay.

Dave "who realizes half the student audience (and maybe his wife) will leave at intermission to catch the season premiere of Grey's Anatomy" Zerkel

I would suggest anyone anywhere close to one of these recitals make the trip to hear Dave Zerkel play. I won't make this long winded so........It will be nothing short of inspiring. Period. I might be at two but you can definitely count me in for the Illinois University one since it's one of the closer ones to Chicago.

Here is some more complete information regarding times and locations for the trip. Hope to have the opportunity to meet some of you on the road!

Greetings,

For those who are still on the fence, there are few artists in our profession of the caliber of David Zerkel. I had the privilege of hosting a recital of his my first year teaching at BGSU, and he was absolutely amazing! This is a great chance to get a marvelous sound and concept in your ears.

Best of luck on your tour Professor Zerkel!

Yup, Dave definitely knows the fingerings. You are a dolt if you don't catch this show.

I'm going to try and make it to the ISU concert. Too bad you're not getting to play in Krannert! Kemp Hall is very good, though.

woo hoo!
Dave is playing tonight
(see you there)

DZ's recital was amazing!! Those of you who have the opportunity to hear him and hang on this tour, take advantage!!!

Oh, and some belated happy birthday gifts probably wouldn't be out of the question either: I'm thinking more in the genre of wheat-and-barley. Happy birthday (a day late) DZ!!!!

Hey all...

A little bump for Dave Zerkel. His amazing recital will be broadcast live (to those in attendance!) in Kemp Recital Hall on the campus of Illinois State University in Normal, Illinois tomorrow night. The recital starts at 8:00pm on Wednesday and is FREE! We would love to have as many local Tubenetters in attendance as possible. I am sure that there will be an opportunity for a hang afterwards if anyone is interested.


Hope to see you tomorrow evening for a great night of music making!

David Zerkel was at Lawrence today. He is a great teacher as he showed during his masterclass. But one of the most amazing performers on the tuba. His performance tonight was simply amazing.

Amazing recital by Dave last night at U of Illinois! It was inspiring. Anyone who makes empty statements like "Perantucci tubas are dull or limited to one color" should start listening to guys like Dave Zerkel play LIVE. Thanks for coming to the midwest!
