The Minnesota Philharmonic Orchestra (MPO) returns for a second consecutive year to deliver a Pride performance at St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral to help kick off Pride Weekend festivities. Closing out its 32nd season, the MPO is the nation’s first LGBTQIA+ orchestra. While the concert is free, the MPO will be taking donations — please consider supporting local queer music-making in whatever way you can!
Program: A prince’s love breaks a sorcerer’s curse. A Vietnamese son writes letters to his mother, who cannot read, exploring their fraught family history and unfolding the relationship with his first love. A Finnish composer protests censorship of the press through what would become a second national anthem for his liberated nation. The MPO’s Pride concert shares stories about courageous love for person and country.
Conducted by Brian Dowdy
