GRANTS

We are proud to have recently received a music grant from The Arts Partnership and Jade Presents!

We are grateful for the assistance from the TAK Music Venue audio and visual team who helped in the recording of this program. 

COMMISSIONS

In 2015 we commissioned Jonathan Campbell to compose a new piece of music. With themes of the northern prairie, our Scandinavian roots, and using a variety of flutes, Jon composed his first flute quartet,
​Dakota Summer: Scenes from the Prairie. The 9-minute work for mixed flute quartet evokes moods, feelings, and imagery of a hot summer day, as well as the musical depictions of a Sunday prayer, a barn dance, and a silent cemetery. Dakota Summer has been published and can be purchased on the Theodore Presser Company's website.
