Mads Tolling is an internationally renowned violinist, composer, and two-time Grammy Award Winner. As a former nine-year member of both the Turtle Island Quartet and Stanley Clarke's Band, Mads has spent most of his professional life touring the world. He grew up in Denmark and moved to the U.S. at the age of 20 to pursue jazz studies. In 2007 he formed a trio which then expanded to a quartet performing smooth jazz internationally. The group integrates the violin into the traditional jazz combo as all four instruments play unconventional roles to make the music come to life. It's a fresh new twist on some traditional music.
All performances are held in the acoustically superb Ann Whitney Olin Auditorium in the Hatheway Cultural Center on the campus of Lewis & Clark Community College. For more information, call (618)468-4222.
