Concert II: A Casual Concert
Arlington, MN
Sometimes concerts can be stuffy and filled with too many “rules of conduct.” Clap here. Don’t clap here. Wear something nice. Stand there. Don’t stand there! Only cough here. We decided we want to loosen concert “etiquette.” Hosted at Arlington Haus Too, this concert will feature music used for li…

Music from New Spain
New Ulm, MN
The choir at the Cathedral in Puebla, México was one of the best in North America in the 1600s. The Cathedral itself is a beautiful testament to Bishop Palafax y Mendoza’s vision of completion and restoration. After the bishop’s arrival in 1640, the much-delayed building project resumed. The cathed…

In fact, some of the pieces by these two men have become so familiar that you’ve likely heard them in commercials and elevators throughout your life. In this concert performance, La Grande Ban…

Concert V: Charpentier's Te Deum (Postponed)
Gaylord, MN
Whether in times of celebration, times of war, or times of peace, the Te Deum had important liturgical and extra-litrugical functions within France and much of Europe.

Concert III: Lively Entertainments
Arlington, MN
With no Netflix, video games, or television series, seventeenth-century entertainments were much different than ours today.
