Holiday Weekend Music
It's a holiday weekend for many—Passover begins Friday, April 15, Ramadan continues until May 1 and Easter Sunday lands on the 17th. Minnesota Orchestra violinist Jean Marker De Vere sends us into celebrations with a tune traditionally associated with the latter: "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" by J.S. Bach. We hope you'll give it a listen no matter what the weekend holds for you!
