Concert: Letters to Jackie

Minnesota Tenor Ryan Townsend Strand is coming home to Minnesota for a major solo performance of original work. Strand will be performing  Letters To Jackie at St. Mark's Episcopal Cathedral in Minneapolis on April 13. The performance features original compositions by Minnesota composers Libby Larson, Tim Takach and Erik Pearson along with 11 other big-time composers (several are Grammy Award winners). The project features songs with lyrics taken from condolence letters sent to Jackie Kennedy following JFK's assassination. There are many Minnesota ties including a couple of the letters selected by the Minnesota composers being penned by Minnesotans 60 years ago.

This is the first solo performance Strand has performed in Minnesota
