Mannheim Steamroller tickets

The musical group Mannheim Steamroller will be performing in Minneapolis at the Orpheum Theatre on Friday December 3rd and Saturday December 4th & we still have excellent seats available in the Pit! That is the front section at the Orpheum Theatre. The Mannheim Steamroller began as an alias for composer/record producer Chip Davis. You may be wondering "where did the name Mannheim Steamroller come from?" Well I was wondering the same thing! It actually comes from an 18th-century German musical technique, Mannheim rocket, an ascending arpeggio made popular by the Mannheim school of composition. Makes sense now right? Sure. The group started circa the 1970's but it was in the beginning of 1984 the Steamroller found its greatest fame. Davis released his first holiday album, Mannheim Steamroller Christmas, which featured modern contemporary interpretations of Yuletide favorites AND over five million copies were sold! The Mannheim Steamroller group have also had tracks with guest vocals by Johnny Mathis and Olivia-Newton-John. Don't they look like that are having a fun time in that picture? This truly is a don't miss show! Get your Mannheim Steamroller tickets while we still have them! They are flyin' out of here like hot cakes I tell ya! You don't want to miss this opportunity to get in the Christmas Spirit :)!
