By coming to our concerts and donating your time or a financial contribution to 10th Wave, you have helped the genre

of classical music stay alive in the

Twin Cities.

Our goal is to push the boundaries of classical music by performing works by contemporary composers in settings that go beyond the concert hall while also keeping our concerts free and accessible to anyone who wants to experience something new.

Your contributions will go toward music, equipment, and venue rentals, bringing in guest artists, commissions for new works, and administrative planning so that we can continue to provide innovative concert experiences. 

 

We need your help as both a listener and a sponsor.

On Saturday November 2nd, 10th Wave performed at Boom Island Brewery in their new Minnetonka location!

 

The new taproom was awesome: a large open space to support a growing fanbase full of happy people, well-behaved dogs, and excellent brews.

 

We enjoyed performing for the first time in the new space, giving away some prizes in our first ever raffle, and getting to know a lot of new people who came out to support local breweries and local artists in Minnesota!

 

Thanks to everyone who joined us on Saturday!
