Cantus and Lorelei in Concert
- At the time of writing this report, I haven’t received a final sales report from the Ordway – so I’m not able to report final Lorelei ticket numbers. But we heard from the Ordway staff the evening of the performance that paid attendance landed at around 530.
- We received some great press for this concert including: Star Trib “best of” mentions (twice), WCCO appearance, Twin Cities Art Reader interview with Chris and Joe, MPR live coverage
- Additional marketing included: MN Opera, MN Orchestra, MinnPost ads, Facebook boosted posting, postcard mailing, brochure mailing, email campaign
