PREVIEW: Minnesota Boychoir Returns to In-Person Performances Arts Music by Twin Cities Arts Reader - June 14, 2021June 20, 2021 Seventeen months after its last live, in-person performance, the Minnesota Boychoir returns to in-person concerts with a trio of free performances around the Twin Cities on June 16, 17, and 19. The hundred-voiced ensemble last performed together in January 2020, at St. Paul’s Landmark Center. Virtual rehearsals kept the group together in spirit during the pandemic, with rehearsals recently resuming in-person. “We are so excited about gathering in-person to offer some music that has carried us through this tough year,” said Mark Johnson, the Executive and Artistic Director of the Minnesota Boychoir. “I know we have a long way to go, and this won’t seem like a normal concert, but singing together continues to give us the strength to keep on. We hope that our words and voices will inspire you and give you joy as we all seek brighter, better days to come.” All three June concerts are free, non-ticketed and open to the public. No tickets or masks are necessary; however, the choirboys will be masked while performing. Attendees of the Thursday, June 17 and Saturday, June 19 are advised to bring a lawn chair or blanket for these outdoor, seating-less events. Auditions for the Minnesota Boychoir’s 2021-2022 season will take place this summer; members range from 6 to 18 years old. The ensemble plans to tour Ireland for 11 days in June 2022.
