Bach at Sea

We are excited to introduce a new partnership with the Winona Symphony Orchestra. Water Music: Chamber Concerts at the MMAM presents a series of four chamber music concerts in an intimate, refined setting among the galleries. These performances are jointly programmed to spotlight both the visual treasures of the Minnesota Marine Art Museum and musical masterworks unified by a common theme.

About

In the midst of winter, audiences at our Bach concert will experience the season in a new climate – the North Atlantic. The text of the cantata and the painting of the Isle of Shoals buffets us about in a wild storm at sea – but not without sanctuary. Take the trip with us knowing that we’ll return safely at the end.
