Care for a little music with your politics? I thought you’d never ask. Years ago — mid-’80s, I believe — Leontyne Price inaugurated a hall here in St. Paul called Ordway. A record (as we then called them, and as they then were) resulted: Leontyne Price, Live at Ordway Hall (or something like that). Well, that hall . . . is right next to the convention center.

And there you have your much-desired dollop of music with your politics.
