Announcing Accordo Season Six

Accordo is presented by The Schubert Club and Kate Nordstrum Projects at the National Historic Landmark Christ Church Lutheran, one of the Twin Cities’ great architectural treasures, designed by the esteemed architect Eliel Saarinen and his son Eero Saarinen. New for the 14-15 season, seating at Christ Church Lutheran will be pre-assigned.
