Our last concert is almost upon us! I am both excited about what's to come and sad to see this amazing project come to an end. It has been an incredible experience.

Please join us next Tuesday night as all of the musicians from the project return, forming two ensembles:

Maria Jette, soprano
Pat O’Keefe, bass clarinet
Kathryn Bennett, violin

Geoffrey West Senn, trumpet
Scott Fultz, tenor saxophone
Stefan Kac, tuba

7:00pm Pre-concert talk with composer Ann Millikan
7:30pm Concert

As usual we'll have great food and Lift Bridge Beer, and hear stories from Hamms Brewery's heyday. Don't miss it! The installation comes down after this.

Here are pics from the last concert, with Swede Hollow resident Joe Sanchelli sharing more stories with Philip Blackburn and Maria Jette after the show.

Thanks to everybody who came out last night, what a blast! Kathryn Bennett and Maria Jette sounded fantastic, beautiful performances. And Joe Sanchelli's stories of life in Swede Hollow were captivating, hilarious and poignant. Here we are, L-R: Maria Jette, Kathryn Bennett, Ann Millikan, Joe Sanchelli.

HOUSE OF MIRRORS Concert 3, Mar. 22, 7:30pm featuring Maria Jette and Kathryn Bennett

I am very excited to announce the next concert in the HOUSE OF MIRRORS Concert Series, which will feature two brilliant classical musicians ~ soprano Maria Jette and violinist Kathryn Bennett.

We've still got snow here in Minnesota but that doesn't stop us from making awesome music! Come hear two new HOUSE OF MIRRORS improvisational compositions written especially for Maria and Kate to perform in the sound world of the installation. This will be a special evening you won't want to miss.

Joe Sanchelli, who lived in Swede Hollow in the 20's and 30's will also be sharing his stories, and of course there'll be plenty of good food and Lift Bridge Beer from up river.
