The duo plays holiday music in a mix of styles, and the library bills the concert for all ages, so it suits families with young children who are out of school or not yet in school, as well as grandparents looking for a calm seasonal outing. The concert runs from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m. on Thursday, December 17, at the library on Orono Parkway in Elk River.
