We begin Erin Aldridge’s 20th season as concertmaster of the DSSO with a look to the East, featuring Rimsky-Korsakov’s masterpiece, Scheherazade. This large orchestral work includes stunning violin solos which weave throughout the work representing the 1,001 tales told by Sultana Scheherazade as she vied to save her life day after day by seizing the interest of Sultan Shahriar. The program also includes Weber’s contribution to the tale of the Arabian Nights. Piano soloist, Adam Golka, completes the program with Africa, a work by Saint-Saëns written in Algeria and Egypt, and Turkish composer Fazil Say’s 2nd Piano Concerto, which evokes traditional music from Silk Road countries including Tibet, India, Mesopotamia, and Anatolia.

Peat Boggs is an eclectic quartet that plays an organic blend of groove, jazz, and twisted folk, shifting easily from smooth melodies to hints of doom and surf rock. Cole Webster shapes the band’s sound with gritty, expressive guitar. Ben Wagener holds down the low end with melodic, wigglin’ bass lines. Chris Shea drives the groove on drums and all things rhythm. Charlie French delivers murky yet reflective lyricism that weaves seamlessly through the band’s lush arrangements. Secret weapon Cavan Denning joins in on sweet, slippery pedal steel. Marlena Boedigheimer, a tenor saxophonist from Duluth, Minnesota, began playing at 14, inspired by Pete Rock & CL Smooth’s “T.R.O.Y.” Her passion for jazz grew through mentorship and high school jazz band participation.

The members of Sometime, Maybe have been playing music in Duluth for over 20 years, but it wasn’t till 2023 that the four of them began playing together. A cumulative of their various backgrounds, tastes, and experiences, they make music that soothes your soul, ruffles your feathers, and gets stuck in your head. With a mix of covers and originals, they’re keeping it moody, groovy, and oh just right. With Erick holding court on the bass, teaching us lessons and keeping it right, and Luke doing mean things to the drums, keeping it tight – that leaves room for Mary to wow with soaring melodies and crushing keys, whilst Asa croons and croaks, tells bad jokes, and strums the ol’ git-fiddle. They love hanging out, making music, getting creative, and maybe playing a show or two — and whatever you think their music is, that’s exactly what it is.
