An evening of classical chamber music by candlelight with members of the Minneapolis Guitar Quartet, Joseph Hagedorn and Maja Radovanlija, in their smaller ensemble, Twin Cities Guitar Duo.
In the coldest, darkest months of winter, warmth and richness can be found in community coming together for the shared appreciation of music and the arts.
