Come to the intimate setting of the Sacred Heart Chapel for this concert performed by violinist Michal Sobieski, member of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra; violinist Elizabeth Sobieski; cellist Arek Tesarczyk of the Minnesota Orchestra; and organist James Biery, Director of Music at the Cathedral of Saint Paul.
