Thank you from all of us
As we embark on yet another musical journey together - our 2024-25 season and our 40th year serving the communities of St. Paul and Rochester - Lyra is so humbled and inspired by YOU, our audiences, supporters, and friends who have helped us to bring this fantastic and unique music to Minnesota. A non-profit is by nature an entity that belongs to the public, and Lyra happily belongs to the people of St. Paul and Rochester. Thank you all for your unwavering support on this musical journey, for both past and future feats of generosity.
