NorthWest Fur Post Concert Series

Don and Sherry Ladig will play wooden flute and keyboards in their "Crosscurrents: Folk to Classical, circa 1805" concert at the NorthWest Fur Post in Pine City on Friday, February 10th, starting at 7:30 p.m. The "serious" composers of the day borrowed tunes of the streets and broadsides; the folk musicians in turn grabbed the melodies of the classical musicians. Here's where it all comes together! (Admission charge at the site).
