CONTINENTAL BALLET COMPANY French clasic "Coppelia," 3 p.m. SpotlishtClaudia Schmidt Long-time Twin Cities favorite Claudia Schmidt is celebrating her 20th anniversary as a professional musician.

Her new album, "It Looks Fine From Here," mixes jazz, blues, Tin Pan Alley and folk music with some African and Caribbean percussion sounds. The sparse-sounding recording features Twin Cities guitarist Dean Magraw and percussionist Marc Anderson. They will accompany Schmidt Saturday at the World Theater in St. Paul. It will be her first concert in the Twin Cities In more than two years.

After living here for a spell, she has returned to Beaver Island, where she has been involved with the Bluebird Bed and Breakfast. 8 p.m. Saturday at the World Theater, Wabasha and Exchange, St Paul. $12 to $18. 290-1221.
