Live from Med City | Season 1, Episode 10 Invoke from the Historic Chateau Theatre | FREE Virtual Concert Sponsored by The Current
Premiere: Thu May 20 @ 6 PM
Re-Broadcast Schedule: Twice Daily (except for Mondays) Thu May 20 - Thu May 27 | 7 AM & 6 PM
HOW TO WATCH: This virtual concert can be viewed on Rochester Civic Music's Facebook, YouTube, and Twitch accounts, and on the local Government Access Cable Channels (Spectrum Channel 188, MetroNet Channel 80).

This episode of "Live from Med City" was recorded in the historic Chateau Theatre in downtown Rochester’s “Heart of the City” district. A special audience-less performance and interview from the Austin-TX based string quartet Invoke.
Described by one pretty important radio guy as “not classical...but not not classical” (SiriusXM), Invoke continues to successfully dodge even the most valiant attempts at genre classification. The multi-instrumental quartet’s other not-nots encompass traditions from across America, including bluegrass, Appalachian fiddle tunes, jazz, and minimalism. Fueled by their passion for storytelling, Invoke weaves all of these styles together to form a unique contemporary repertoire, featuring original works composed by and for the group. This passion also inspired Invoke’s ongoing commissioning initiative “American Postcards,” in which they draw on composers from all backgrounds to help tell the stories of America, piece by piece.
Rochester Civic Music, the City of Rochester's music department, presents "Live from Med City", the online video digest for all things arts and entertainment in Rochester, MN. The "Live from Med City" concept was conceived with the objective of spotlighting the many “live arts experiences” Rochester has to offer, featuring artists from around the block and from all over the world, and filmed in some of its finest and most unique venues.
This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating Support Grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.
