Lakeshore Rush is comprised of extraordinary musicians from Chicago who delight audiences of all ages with riveting contemporary and classical standards and forgotten masterpieces.

Lakeshore Rush will present a program inspired by the dance genre, including compositions by Astor Piazzolla, Manuel De Falla, Maurice Ravel, Keyna Wilkins, and Nikola Resanovic. Lakeshore Rush takes its name from a previously endangered lakeshore grass that has recently revitalized Lake Michigan’s shores in Chicago. This concert is sponsored by the St. Charles Public Library Foundation.
