LoginSpeaking Through the Reed: Then, Now, Next
Join bassoonist Tasman Compton and pianist Karen Smithies at The Hedberg for a reflective lunchtime concert of music and storytelling.

Through both performance and spoken reflection, Tasman offers insight into the experiences and influences that have shaped his path, inviting audiences into a thoughtful exploration of sound, time, and artistic identity.
