Live and act

Hubweber began to play drums as a twelve-year-old after his first attempts on the zither ; in the next few years he also played guitar and electric bass . At the age of seventeen he switched to the trombone and between 1973 and 1975 also performed in Italy, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. From 1976 he was involved in the organization of the New Jazz Festival Moers (as well as the Workshop 76 of the Globe Unity Orchestra ) and in the production of several recordings for the later moers records . Between 1976 and 1982 he appeared in various constellations with Claus van Bebber , Martin Theurer , Erhard Hirt and Ulrich Phillipp ; In addition, the then underground label msc produced the first solo LP and a few collages. Several repeated participations in the Wiesbaden HumaNoise Congress arose through Phillipp ; since 1984 there have been concerts with Alfred Zimmerlin , John Butcher , Dorothea Schürch and other international musicians. In the late 1980s he founded a new musicians' cooperative in Cologne with Georg Wissel , with whom he played in the groups Kollegu Pischu and Bull's Eye Ensemble , from which the collaboration with Joachim Zoepf arose; with Carl Ludwig Hübsch he worked on Beatles classics . With Peter Kowald he played duos that were expanded with Paul Lovens ; with Lovens and John Edwards , the trio PaPaJo emerged , which is considered “one of the better groups currently on the 'market'” (Alois Fischer). He also played in the Schnack Duo with Uli Böttcher , who gave concerts with Phil Minton , Georg Wolf , Michael Vorfeld and, above all, Michel Waisvisz . With the pianist Stevko Busch he works on the music of Charlie Parker in slow motion .
