British violinist Daniel Hope will serve as the featured artist for the newly announced 2023-24 Schubert Club International Artist Series with performances April 25 and 26, 2024, at the Ordway Center for the Performing Arts in downtown St. Paul.
“I’m not alone at Schubert Club in being a big admirer of Daniel Hope over many years,” said artistic and executive director Barry Kempton in a news release. “Not only a violinist of the highest calibre, Daniel’s musical intelligence, eloquence and sense of adventure make him the perfect musician to feature over multiple programs.”
Now in its 141th year, the Schubert Club is Minnesota’s oldest arts organization. The upcoming season includes both the International Artist Series, held at the Ordway, and Music in the Park, which features more intimate chamber music concerts at St. Paul’s St. Anthony Park United Church of Christ.
Subscriptions are priced from $280 to $105 for the International Artist Series and $125 for Music in the Park. They are on sale now via schubert.org or by phone at 651-292-3268. Single ticket sales open in August.
