History Revealed – Lissie
Presented by Ramsey County Historical Society

Suite 317
Wednesday, March 11, 2026
6:00 PM-7:30 PM
Tickets – $25
RCHS is excited and honored to host Lissie for an evening of conversation revolving around her work in music and television. The conversation will be moderated by Youa Vang followed by a Q&A to give attendees the opportunity to ask the artist questions.
Conversation moderated by Youa Vang
Emerging at the dawn of the 2010s with her debut album Catching a Tiger, Lissie defied easy categorization. A singer/songwriter with a gift for soft melodies and delicate surfaces who nevertheless demonstrated a quiet strength at her core, Lissie is a native of the American midwest but found her greatest success in the U.K., which embraced not only Catching a Tiger but made her 2018 album, Castles, a Top Ten record nearly a decade later. Between those two albums, Lissie didn’t sit still. She teamed with Jacknife Lee for the glossy 2013 set Back to Forever, then began the process of stripping her music back to its emotional roots with 2016’s My Wild West, a journey that reached its apex with Carving Canyons, a 2022 album where she processed personal loss through the prism of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Youa Vang is Vice President of RCHS. She is a freelance journalist in the Twin Cities for over 15 years and has written for The Current, MSP Magazine, MN Monthly, Mn Artists and reports on music for MPR. In her free time, she creates art with her sister under the name Third Daughter, Restless Daughter. Vang lives in St. Paul with her family and their tiny dog. She is currently working on her first book about how she connects to being Hmong as a first-generation immigrant.

An active concert pianist and chamber musician, she performs in some of the major venues across the Twin Cities as well as internationally in Eastern and Central Europe, the Middle East and the Caribbean. Ms. Itkin is a faculty member at both the Music Department of University of St. Thomas and MacPhail Center for Music. She also a founder of Reprise School of Piano and Musicianship in Saint Paul, Minnesota and an artistic director of a multi-disciplinary music series entitled Muse Salon, with successful programs since 2009 at The Schubert Club, the Weisman Art Museum, the University of Minnesota and the Alliance Française. For years Ms. Itkin was serving as the curator of a multilingual festival entitled Worlds between Words at the University of Minnesota.
As an educator and a life-long advocate of a holistic approach to learning, Ms. Itkin seeks to promote an interconnectedness of music with the arts, humanities, and sciences in everything she does, especially in her original multimedia productions ArtAffects, cultural ambassadorship initiatives, interdisciplinary seminars and presentations, and individual work with students of all ages.

2026-04-16 12:00 - 13:00 | Courtroom 317 – Landmark Center, 75 5th St. W., Saint Paul, MN, 55102, United States
Minnesota-based musicians Cléa Galhano (recorder) and Joan Griffith (guitar and cavaquinho) perform a vibrant Brazilian repertoire, highlighting diverse musical styles shaped by African and Portuguese influences.
Brazilian recorder player Cléa Galhano is an internationally renowned performer of early, contemporary and Brazilian music.
Galhano has performed in the United States, Canada, South America and Europe as a chamber musician, collaborating with recorder player Marion Verbruggen, Jacques Ogg, Belladonna, Lanzelotte/Galhano Duo and Kingsbery Ensemble. As a featured soloist, Galhano has worked with the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra, New World Symphony, Musical Offering and Lyra Baroque Orchestra.
Among other important music festivals, Ms. Galhano has performed at the Boston Early Music Festival, the Tage Alter Music Festival in Germany and at Wigmore Hall in London, Weill Hall at Carnegie Hall and Merkin Hall in New York and Palazzo Santa Croce in Rome, always receiving acclaimed reviews. Ms. Galhano was featured in 2006 in the Second International Recorder Congress in Leiden, Holland in 2007 and 2013 at the International Recorder Conference in Montréal and in 2012 at the ARS International Conference, Portland, Oregon.
She gave her Weill Hall at Carnegie Hall debut in May 2010 and her second Weil Hall recital on December 2013 with the international Cuban guitarist Rene Izquierdo.
Galhano studied in Brazil at Faculdade Santa Marcelina, the Royal Conservatory (The Hague), and the New England Conservatory of Music in Boston, earning a LASPAU, Fulbright Scholarship and support from the Dutch government. As an advocate of recorder music and educational initiatives, she served for six years on the national board of the American Recorder Society, and is the Music Director of the Recorder Orchestra of the Midwest. Ms. Galhano recently received the prestigious 2013 McKnight fellowship award, MSAB Cultural collaborative and MSAB Arts Initiative.

Ms. Galhano has recordings available on Dorian, Ten Thousand Lakes and Eldorado label and she is the recipient of the National Arts Associate of Sigma Alpha Iota.
Joan Griffith never met a string instrument she didn’t like. Growing up in Bellevue, Nebraska, she fell in love with the guitar while listening to Stan Getz and João Gilberto on their breakout Brazilian album. She immediately got her mother to purchase the record and, at age 14, proceeded to figure out how to play all the songs! “This is what I thought the guitar should sound like” she remembers.
Joan went to the Conservatory at the University of Kansas City because it was one of the few schools that offered a guitar major. While she was there, she met another string instrument, the acoustic bass, and a whole new world of music opened to her. From there, the electric bass was soon introduced and she and friends from the Conservatory formed a disco/rock cover band called Airhart. Also in Kansas City, she was a part of the influential Women’s Jazz Festival. Her love of jazz was a constant, and became an integral part of her early professional working years.
After a musical stint in Arkansas, touring the state with a flute player, she moved to the Twin Cities in 1987, becoming an active player in the jazz/jobbing scene. As one of the all-woman trio, Naima, Joan and her band mates made their mark in the mostly male jazz scene, garnering honors and rave reviews. Joan also became a part of the musical theater world where her ability to play both bass and guitar fit in nicely. The Children’s Theater, the Guthrie, Theater Mu, Park Square and Bloomington Civic Theater (now known as Artistry) all were glad to have her in the pit. She has also played frequently with the Minnesota Orchestra.
It was at the Children’s Theater that a mandolin part was included as a double with the guitar book. Never having played one before, she looked it over for a minute or two and promptly ripped off a few scales. The mandolin surrendered. She has since added the violin to her string resume. Joan has also followed her composer voice’s calling. This is where her first love, the music of Brazil, is her biggest influence. As one can hear on her recordings, the choros, the bossas, the baiãos and the sambas live deeply in her soul. A visiting friend, a Brazilian guitarist, said “Joan plays Brazilian music without an accent.” Passing on her love of music, Joan has taught at the University of St. Thomas and St. Catherine’s University among other schools. She is currently ensconsed at Macalester College. She is a roster artist with COMPAS and the Minnesota State Arts Board.
