ABOUT 10TH WAVE

10th Wave is a 501c(3) musician-led ensemble that collaborates with living, local and/or underrepresented artists to perform high quality programming and connect with the Minneapolis-St. Paul community.

We believe music has the ability to create a shared experience; therefore, we are always searching for new opportunities to present programmatic concerts and perform in casual public spaces where high quality art music is welcome. Through our concerts, we strive to build a community within our audiences that breaks down the barriers of social class, race, and ethnicity to be accessible for all who come to listen.
