Duluth Does …? »

Sacred Heart Music Center is gearing up to do another Duluth Does event in October and we are trying to decide on a theme. We have already done the Beatles, Woodstock, Johnny Cash and Neil Young and the Grand Ole Opry. We have some ideas but want to hear suggestions from the PDD community.

What artists or genres would you like to hear area musicians cover?

Our only criteria is that the music will work in the space, meaning Duluth Does Slayer or Megadeath is probably out, and that people will want to come out and support it as these events are fundraisers for Sacred Heart.

What’s your idea for a Duluth Does show?

Free Chamber Music Concert »

Sacred Heart Music Center will play host to part of the Three Bridges International Chamber Music Festival with a free concert on Tuesday June 16 at 7:30 pm.

I have had the pleasure of recording all of the concerts during this festival and have been very impressed by the quality of the participants. Some world class players are involved and hearing them play in the acoustical space of Sacred Heart should be a treat. Even if you aren’t normally a classical music fan you owe it to yourself to check out this show.

Duluth Does Cash & Young »

Performers of all genres are encouraged to sign up; klezmer groups, barbershop quartets, jug bands, tuba trios, pan flute players or whatever as well as the the usual guitar strumming suspects. This is to be a (mostly) acoustic show so no Marshall stacks allowed, sorry.

Artists chosen to participate will receive a copy of the show recorded by Sacred Heart Studio, free pizza and beer and a stipend.
