Dear Friends,<br />
As the days get shorter and we approach the holidays,<br />
music plays a special role in our lives. Several upcoming<br />
programs relate overtly to the season. Our Music in the<br />
Park Series program, “A Baroque Christmas,” features the<br />
Aulos Ensemble with Dominique Labelle, and we unveil<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Schubert</strong> <strong>Club</strong> Carolers singing carols by Minnesota<br />
composers at our December 20th free Courtroom Concert.<br />
We are fortunate to feature a number of excellent<br />
Minnesota-based ensembles over the next two months.<br />
<strong>The</strong> ever-popular Hill House Chamber Players give the<br />
fi rst of their six concerts on November 19th and the string<br />
ensemble Accordo continues its series at Christ Church<br />
Lutheran in Minneapolis with a tribute to Claude Debussy.<br />
In addition to these regular collaborators, we welcome<br />
Belladonna with Maria Jette at Sundin Hall in a feast of early<br />
music, song and poetry, pipa virtuoso Gao Hong with her<br />
Carleton College Chinese Music Ensemble at our Landmark<br />
Center Cocktails with Culture program on November 8th,<br />
and the talented Ensemble 61 performing a program of<br />
Minnesota composers in our November 15th Courtroom<br />
Concert in Landmark Center.<br />
And for our November International Artist Series concert at<br />
Ordway Center, what a thrill it is to welcome British pianist<br />
Stephen Hough at his fi rst <strong>Schubert</strong> <strong>Club</strong> recital. Stephen’s<br />
many appearances with the Minnesota Orchestra have<br />
made him a favorite in the Twin Cities and a musician I<br />
personally have admired for many years.<br />
On behalf of all the team at <strong>The</strong> <strong>Schubert</strong> <strong>Club</strong>, I wish you a<br />
happy, harmonious and peaceful Holiday season.<br />
Barry Kempton<br />
Artistic and Executive Director<br />
