Death of Minnesota conductor, 94
RIPStarting out as assistant conductor to Antal Dorati in Minneapolis, Dr Robert Berglund founded the Minnesota Chorale and was Director of Music (1969-1995) at Mt. Olivet Lutheran Church, the largest Lutheran congregation in the United States.
He was Professor of Music at Bethel College (now University), chairing its music department from 1959 to 1995.
Now that’s a name worthy of Minnesota. RIP, maestro.
