We’re welcoming Tim Kliphuis to the Mineral Point Opera House on Sunday, March 7th, at 6:00 pm. Doors open at 5:30 pm. Advance tickets are $25 for balcony seats, $30 for lower level seats, and $35 for the first two rows and box seats (plus taxes and fees). Ticket prices increase by $5 on the day of the show.

Award-winning violin legend Tim Kliphuis (Holland) teams up with America’s rising star on gypsy jazz guitar Jimmy Grant (LA) to celebrate the music of famed French musical duo, Stéphane Grappelli and Django Reinhardt.

Their new programme “Under Paris Skies”, punctuated with informative and fun stories by Kliphuis, celebrates the European gypsy jazz created in 1934. Find out the hidden World War II message in “J’Attendrai”, experience the melancholy of “Je Suis Seule Ce Soir”, and walk through the bustling streets of “Ménilmontant”: these wartime hits were sung by famous chansonniers Édith Piaf, Yves Montand and Charles Trenet. To top it off, the iconic waltz “Sous Le Ciel de Paris (Under Paris
Skies)” – a symbol of Paris in the world.

Drawing inspiration from Django jazz, current-day classical and folk music, Tim and Jimmy alternate moments of dazzling interplay with melancholy and sheer exhilaration, in an inspired conversational journey that is different every night.
