Dinner and a Scare 2!

A sold-out favorite from last year “Dinner and a Scare” is always a fun concert. The programming contrasts spooky masterworks by Berlioz, Weelkes, Lauridsen, alongside Little Shop of Horrors, new pieces, and musical surprises we don’t dare spoil here! There is something for everyone, whether you are a connoisseur of choral calamities, or a noob to the niceties of musical nuance. In other words, “Dinner and a Scare” is both excellent and fun.

Rondo ’56: Remembering St Paul’s Black Main Street

With its four musical hosts, Rondo '56 paints a portrait in music, stories and archival photos of St. Paul's thriving Black neighborhood in the decade before it was sliced down the middle to make room for I-94. Brimming with first-hand accounts and iconic R&B and gospel favorites from the decade after World War II and before the freeway, Rondo '56 is a loving evocation of this two-mile-long neighborhood centered on Rondo Avenue, a vibrant and tight-knit community that was home to most of St. Paul's Black residents.
