PROGRAM
Chanticleer
Jalapeno Blues: Chanticleer is returning to Saint Paul Sunday, and this time they'll sing a brand-new work commissioned just for them to commemorate Saint Paul Sunday's 25th anniversary. Gabriela Lena Frank's "Jalapeno Blues" is the centerpiece of this week's show, and the composer will be in the studio with them to talk about her exciting new piece. This "orchestra of voices," as Chanticleer is often described, is in top form in all styles, and you'll not want to miss the moving experience of hearing them sing each and every gem they've brought.
