Music that Stirs the Soul

Dear Friends,

I just returned from a concert by the Lyra Baroque Orchestra that included three of Johann Sebastian Bach's Brandenburg concertos and a horn concerto by Carl Heinrich Graun.  It was a fantastic concert.  The music is incredible and the way it was performed was awesome.  The Lyra Baroque Orchestra is not a full time orchestra, but it is very professional and is able to attract great guest performers from all over the world.  The concertos were played by about ten performers.  You can hear each instrument.  It is a completely different experience from hearing larger orchestras. 

The Minneapolis/St. Paul area has the Minnesota Symphony Orchestra , the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, the Lyra Baroque Orchestra, and several community orchestras.  We are extremely lucky to have such an incredible variety of professional orchestras and community orchestra.  They enrich our lives and our communities.  Go to a performance you won't regret it.

Thanks for reading and please comment,
