As the summer sun beckons music lovers out of their homes, St. Louis Park continues to deliver with its series of free concerts, adding a dash of high culture this coming Saturday. The city has teamed up with the St. Louis Park Rotary Club to present a melodious evening featuring Overdressed Duo, who will be performing selections from the classical opera, "La Triviata." The event, scheduled for August 3 from 7 to 9 p.m., will take place at the Veterans' Memorial Amphitheater located at 3700 Monterey Drive. Amidst the laid-back vibes of the season, attendees can expect to enjoy a refined sonic experience.
For those wary of the fickle moods of Mother Nature, the city has made provisions to quickly relay concert status updates. A swift call to 952.924.2567 will provide eager concertgoers with real-time information should severe weather attempt to, rather inconveniently, upstage the evening's planned arias. With the skies being the only unpredictable element in what promises to be a memorable night, the organizers have covered all bases to ensure a seamless experience for attendees.
Looking beyond the operatic rendezvous, the Summer Concert Series shows no signs of slowing down, with a vibrant lineup set to keep the momentum going. According to the information provided on St. Louis Park's official announcement, following Overdressed Duo's classical interlude, the stage will be set on fire with the spicy rhythms of Salsa Del Soul on August 7, which is sure to coax even the most reticent dancers into the limelight.
It isn’t every day you get to, seamlessly switch from opera to salsa to showcasing local talent, but the Summer Concert Series seems intent on delivering just that. A Community Talent Show on August 14th will give local stars a chance to shine, and the series will close out on a folksy note with the Dan Israel Folk Festival on August 24. Details on these and other concerts in the series are available by visiting the summer concerts webpage. With such a diverse array of performances, there's a beat for every foot and a tune for every ear this August in St. Louis Park.
