Please join Emily Switzer (YC '17, YSM '19), Sarah Switzer (YC '19) and their colleagues in the Isles Ensemble for their first concert of the season, "Music at the Movies." Experience an afternoon of cinematic chamber music, including works by compositional giants of the silver screen (as well as a few surprises along the way!). Guest artist Maria Jette narrates the delightfully autumnal tale of “The Open Window,” accompanied by music of Beethoven, Haydn, Bartók, and more. Minnesota Orchestra violinist Sarah Grimes joins the group for the second half of the concert, musically anchored by Korngold's exquisite String Quartet No. 2, which features the lush textures and beautiful melodies that characterize his evocative film scores of the 1930s and 40s.
The concert is 2 pm on Sunday, November 2nd, at the beautiful Lake of the Isles Lutheran Church (2020 West Lake of the Isles Parkway, Minneapolis). Tickets are $25, or pay-as-you-can; students and children admitted free. Advance tickets can be purchased below; more information is available on the Isles Ensemble website.
