Music and Hardware

dwslogoElliott’s Hardware, a favorite institution in Dallas and a long-time sponsor of The Dallas Wind Symphony, inspires people to create things. Composer-in-Residence John Gibson is no exception. His latest composition, “Man Dreams in Hardware,” is played on instruments constructed from items found on the shelves at Elliott’s. Imagine the Sawsaphone, the Patuba and Batuba, and the PVCiccolo! Join Professor Carol as she talks with Gibson about his sweeping theme: God, Man, and Hardware.
