Beer gardens are a tradition brought to Wisconsin by German brewers in the 1850s - they’re outdoor areas where beer and food are served, typically at shared tables shaded by trees.


The Traveling Beer Garden tours transform parks into temporary beer gardens for twelve days at a time. Restored fire trucks were converted into mobile beer trucks, serving up craft beers, and more.

Performance with
Milwaukee Symphony Chorus

212 W Wisconsin Ave, Milwaukee, WI 53203 

Tōru Takemitsu’s all-string Requiem, dedicated to the memory of a fellow composer, was the music that first established the Japanese composer in the western world in the 1950s. Contrast the Requiem with the contemporary voice of another Japanese composer, Misato Mochizuki, and with the French music that influenced Takemitsu — Grammy Award®-winning vocalists Kelly O’Connor and John Brancy lend their voices to Duruflé’s sacred music, as well as to Canteloube, who arranges French folk songs for soprano and orchestra in his Chants (Songs).
