SPECIAL EVENTS Mesaba Concert Association The Mesaba Concert Association has been bringing world- class entertainers into our community for over 60 years. They believe people in our community should have the opportunity to experience a variety of quality live entertainers at a price everyone can afford. February 11, Duo Baldo- The musical comedy team DUO BALDO is renowned violinist Brad Repp and pianist/actor Aldo Gentileschi. Their critically acclaimed performances combine virtuosic performances, theatrical humor, and pop culture. March 24, Barron Ryan- Barron Ryan’s love for music has always been divided. The son of two musicians, he grew up in a house filled with the sounds of artists ranging from Mozart to Michael Jackson. So when it comes to his own performing, he’s not content drawing on just one influence. He combines them all into a musical adventure that’s vintage yet fresh, historical yet hip, classic yet cool.
