Welcome from the Executive Director

Welcome to another extraordinary season of dance and music at Northrop—a season we are proud to offer, inspired by your curiosity, energy, and commitment to making the arts a central part of life.

Rooted in the belief that the arts are essential to the human experience, Northrop is committed to cultivating intersections between performing arts and education—for all participants, now and for generations to come. This season, those intersections will be more vibrant than ever. We have curated performances that stretch boundaries, inspire reflection, and celebrate both innovation and tradition in equal measure.

You’ll see in this season’s lineup a range of world-class artists and ensembles—some of whom we know well, others who bring voices and perspectives new to our stage. Each program is selected not only for its artistic excellence, but also for its ability to provoke thought, open dialogue, and offer learning opportunities beyond the stage: workshops, pre-show discussions, community gatherings, and more. These elements are meant to deepen your experience, helping to illuminate context, process, and the living, breathing nature of creative work.

As part of the University’s teaching, research, and service mission, Northrop strives to be a catalyst—igniting transformation in each individual, inspiring positive change in our world. Through the rhythm of dance, the textures of music, and the shared moments among us in the audience, we hope you will find something that moves you, surprises you, and invites you to see the world just a little differently.

I invite you to join us not just as spectators, but as participants. Ask questions. Bring friends. Explore more. Share what you experience. We are honored to present this season, and even more honored to share it with a community that values what the arts offer—beauty, challenge, joy, connection.

Thank you for being here and supporting Northrop. Together, let us make Northrop’s 97th season remarkable.

With gratitude,
Kari Schloner
Executive Director

Welcome from the Advisory Board Chair

Dear Friends,

On behalf of the Northrop Advisory Board, it is my great pleasure to welcome you to Northrop, the University of Minnesota’s historic home for the performing arts. For almost a century, Northrop has been a place where artistry, learning, and community converge—a stage not only for extraordinary performances but also for dialogue, discovery, and inspiration.

Each season, Northrop presents world-class dance, music, and other performances, and serves as a gathering place for students, faculty, and community members alike. These experiences enrich our campus and our state, fostering the creativity, curiosity, and cultural understanding that are so vital in today’s world.

Your presence here affirms the importance of the arts in higher education and in civic life. We invite you to be more than an audience member—become an advocate for the arts. Share your experiences, bring new friends to Northrop, and help us amplify the voices of artists and thinkers who inspire us to see the world anew.

We also ask you to consider a gift to Northrop. Your financial support ensures that future generations can access the transformative power of the arts, that students can encounter artists in their classrooms as well as on our stage, and that our community can continue to gather here for moments that move and unite us.

Thank you for being part of Northrop’s story. Together, we can sustain this remarkable institution and secure its role as a cultural cornerstone for decades to come.

With gratitude,
Kelly McQueen, Chair, Northrop Advisory Board

The Artists

Greg Zelek at the Northrop Organ

Greg Zelek

Praised as “extraordinary in the classical music world” (Jon Hornbacher, PBS Wisconsin Life) and a “musical star” (Bill Wineke, Channel 3000), Greg Zelek was appointed Northrop Organist in Aug 2024. For the 2025–26 Northrop Music Series, Zelek has arranged three unconventional organ pairings for a joyful trilogy of concerts featuring Northrop’s historic pipe organ: Parisian Jazz Night: Featuring Guitarist Alvaro Bermudez & Northrop Organist Greg Zelek; Sounds of the Season: Relaxed Matinee With Organist Greg Zelek; and An Evening of Organ & Choir: Featuring University Singers and Northrop Organist Greg Zelek.

Additionally, Zelek is the principal organist of the Madison Symphony Orchestra (MSO) and Curator of the Overture Concert Organ. In this role, Zelek performs and oversees all of the MSO’s organ programming. The MSO Organ Series regularly attracts more than 1,000 ticketed audience members for each of his creatively curated and performed concerts. Since Sep 2017, he has proudly held the Elaine and Nicholas Mischler Curatorship. In addition to his unique position in Madison, WI, Zelek is the curator of the Organ Series for the Jacksonville Symphony.

Zelek performs frequently as a soloist throughout the United States. Always playing his solo programs from memory, he has played and premiered many of the large works of the organ canon, as well as new works that showcase the versatility of the instrument. Select performances for the 2024–25 season include concerts at Spreckels Organ Pavilion in San Diego, CA, and Jacoby Symphony Hall in Jacksonville, FL, and performances and masterclasses at the Oregon Bach Festival.

Alongside various orchestras, Zelek has performed the organ concertos of Barber, Poulenc, and Rheinberger. In Sep 2024, he performed Jongen’s Symphonie Concertante with the Madison Symphony Orchestra. Zelek has also been the organist for works such as Mahler’s 8th Symphony, Janáček’s Glagolitic Mass, Saint-Saëns’s Organ Symphony, Strauss’s Alpine Symphony, Respighi’s Pines of Rome, Foss’s Phorion, and Gounod’s Faust.

Zelek is known for his inventive programming and collaborations. He has performed a classical and gospel concert with counter-tenor Reginald Mobley; arranged and commissioned works for cello and organ with cellist Thomas Mesa; performed in a Latin-American concert with a Cuban band from Miami, FL; and collaborated with electronic trombonist Mark Hetzler in a concert featuring new music for organ, trombone, and percussion. He has also performed with the Canadian Brass in his role as visiting guest artist at St. John’s Abbey in Collegeville, MN. The 24–25 season programming included a concert of arias and spirituals with tenor Limmie Pulliam, a performance with the new Lyyra Ensemble, and an Empire Brass Celebration concert featuring former Empire Brass players that incorporated a newly commissioned work for the Overture Concert Organ and the ensemble.

In 2016, Zelek was chosen by The Diapason magazine as one of the top “20 Under 30” organists, and has won prizes in numerous organ competitions. He released a recording on the Overture Concert Organ in the fall of 2022. A recipient of the inaugural Kovner Fellowship, he received his bachelor’s and master’s degrees, as well as an artist diploma, from the Juilliard School as a student of Paul Jacobs. Zelek, who is Cuban-American and a native Spanish speaker, grew up in Miami, FL.

Alvaro Bermudez playing the guitar

Alvaro Bermudez

Bermudez is a native of White Plains, NY. He currently heads the guitar program at Ronald Reagan Senior High School’s Classical Arts Academy in Doral, FL. He holds a Bachelor of Music Degree and Master of Music Degree from Florida International University in Jazz Studies with an emphasis in guitar.

Bermudez has been recognized for his “fine … contemporary choral music,” which has been described as “lovely” and “contagious.” (South Florida Classical Review, Music in Cincinnati, & Miami Clásica) Seraphic Fire first commissioned him to write Padre Nuestro, a setting of the Lord’s Prayer, which was premiered by the group in 2007. Universities and professional groups throughout the U.S. and South and Central America have since performed Bermudez’s compositions and commissioned him to write new works. In 2020, Bermudez was the recipient of a Knight Foundation New Work Award to write Danzas del Silencio, a compelling choral and guitar collaboration with Seraphic Fire that blends Colombian dance rhythms with Bach’s orchestral structure. Bermudez is a guitarist in high demand all over South Florida. His Latin trio, Trio Los Clasicos, plays regularly in the Miami area and has been engaged for performances in Atlanta, GA and Boston, MA.
