The Isles Ensemble has been enriching the musical landscape of the Twin Cities since 2004. Each member of the ensemble brings a wealth of artistry and experience to the stage, resulting in an outstanding group the Star Tribune called the “cream of the Twin Cities classical musicians.” The varied performing and teaching careers of the Isles Ensemble musicians include membership in the Minnesota Orchestra, the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, internationally touring string quartets (Lark, Chester, Manhattan) and college and university faculties.Concerts are inspiring, fun and personal experiences for each audience member regardless of musical background. Repertoire is chosen from a wide range of styles and includes gems from the standard repertoire as well as little-known works that audiences will be pleased to experience, perhaps for the first time. The players introduce each piece to provide some listening guidance as well as a performer’s perspective. After each concert, audience members are invited to join the players at an informal reception for a chance to get to know each other and discuss the music in more depth.
