L'Étoile du Nord
The "Star of the North" Concert Band is a non-profit, charitable organization of over fifty musicians from the Minneapolis and St. Paul communities in Minnesota. The group was organized in 1994 to contribute to Minnesota's musical tradition by providing an opportunity for local accomplished musicians to share their talents, develop their abilities, and make contacts with other performing musicians via rehearsals, concerts, and tours.
Local performances have routinely included Como Park and Landmark Center in St. Paul; Lake Harriet in Minneapolis; the Maple Grove Town Green Bandshell; and Lakefront Park Bandshell in Hudson, WI.
