As the delights of summer recede in the rearview mirror, here’s a heads up for the excitement of fall and a new concert season with much to look forward to.
Friday the 13th is your lucky day at the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra. The ensemble’s performance is headlined by concertmaster Steven Copes and artistic partner Tabea Zimmermann in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s profoundly gorgeous Sinfonia Concertante for violin, viola and orchestra.
Also this weekend, an old friend returns to Minnesota. Soprano Frederica von Stade first performed for the Schubert Club in St. Paul in 1979 and has been a regular visitor since then for various projects, including commissions from the Minnesota Orchestra. Now 79 years young, she’s still singing and teaching, and returns to the Twin Cities for a series of nine benefit concerts and master classes, including several public recitals.
And this is only the beginning of a great season. Join me on the radio this week at 8:45 a.m. for more of our fall season preview.
