You are now watching: The High Bar w/Warren: Trimpin (Music appreciation)

What’s music to my ears, may be noise to yours. The space between cacophony and symphony is the field in which MacArthur genius grant recipient, Trimpin, has been frolicking for a lifetime. He turns found objects into Art and that Art into music, redefining our conceptions of the discarded and the melodic while creating installations that tunefully tickle fancies.

When the inimitable Trimpin visits The High Bar he shares his love of schnapps, exhibits his gift for compositional improv and validates Warren’s tone-deaf shower-singing. Most of all, Trimpin raises a toast to and the bar for… music appreciation. Cheers!
