St Olaf Choir features a local

April 3, 2010 by Allen H Simon Leave a Comment

Minnesota Public Radio features an item on a St. Olaf Choir performance of music by Abbie Burt Benitis.

The audience sat silently, transfixed by the beauty and creativity of the piece and granted the composer a prolonged ovation. At intermission she was besieged by admirers.

Abbie is the grand-niece of Christmas-carol composer Alfred Burt.

I had the pleasure of meeting both Abbie Betinis and Joshua Shank at the same time (at the 2009 ACDA-MN Summer Dialogue Conference) … and encourage all who don’t know their work already to investigate. Great stuff!
