Frogman, I just watched you link to Kenny D Jr playing Back and "Stella in Starlight " .
I was immediately shocked at how sick he was and that the venue was the School of Music at the U of MN .
You could tell where his heart was when he slid into "Stella" a most noble
effort by a great musician just months away from his death.
The School has about 600 students who all have to give recitals , they all all free and 4.7 miles from me !
Even in Summer , in next 5 days there will be 3 major concerts , Brahms Requiem , Mozart’s Sinfonia concertante and a recital from the Baroque
Instrumental Group as part of the 2 week Mpls. Early Music Festival.
School has 2 big bands and 6-7 small jazz ensembles , all this is in
Ted Mann Hall, 1200 seat venue with world-class acoustics .
They don’t call Mpls. the "minni apple" for nothing !
