Sunday Coffee Concerts LLC

Sunday Coffee Concerts is embarking on its 17th season of presenting top musical artists from the deep Twin Cities talent pool at the Lakeville Area Arts Center (LAAC). We offer an engaging, entertaining, and educating diverse array of repertoires, ensembles, and performers. Artists share music they love in a casual, conversational, cabaret setting, accompanied by complimentary coffee and treats. Our audiences come from all ages and backgrounds in the area served by the LAAC, including the greater Twin Cities Metro Area, Rochester, Northfield, and South-of-the-River towns and communities surrounding Lakeville.

We present four very varied concert programs each year between January and June. All concerts are at 2:00 pm Sunday afternoons at the LAAC. Parking is free and convenient. Facilities are fully ADA accessible.

Here's our 2025 Lineup:

Sun., Jan. 5, 2025 -The Mysterious Muse Jelly d'Arányi

Catherine & Clara Schubilske, violin; Mary Jo Gothmann, piano

Sun., Feb. 2, 2025 - Adam Sadberry, Flute

Concert Artist Guild Award winner Adam W. Sadberry is an exciting, multifaceted young artist, hailed by the Washington Post as one of the 23 Artists to Watch for ’23, “Intertwining his virtuosic practice with a deeply personal history.” 

Sun. Mar. 9, 2025 - The Fire Within Us

The Isles Ensemble, hailed as “Cream of the Twin Cities classical musicians,” performs great works of chamber music expressing suffering and love, with emotionally-charged works ranging from ecstatic fervor, to burning desire, to utter despair.

May 18, 2025 - Baroque Arias and Instrumentals

Collaboration of Early Music Minnesota, Soprano Linh Kauffman, and OboeBass! in Masterworks of the Baroque.

This season inaugurates our partnership with Springboard for the Arts as Fiscal Sponsor. This marks both a steep challenge to find new ways to continue to present these high calibre artists and programs, and an exciting new opportunity to link up with new audiences and supporters. Due to changing grant priorities and schedules, we can no longer rely on the generous support this series has received through numerous Legacy grants in the past. We need your help to keep this series going for this season and the future, both as donors and enthusiastic audience members.

We hope to see you at one of our upcoming concerts. Bring a friend! Keep posted on what we're doing at www.facebook.com/coffeeconcerts.
