Join Seattle Pro Musica for performances and a sing-along of new music from nine of the Northwest’s most prominent choral composers.
What makes living in the Northwest special? The scenery, the people... and the music. Join us for a special ArtsCrush event featuring new music by nine Northwest composers. In the striking setting of First Church on Denny Way, you'll experience exciting music by Grammy nominee Morten Lauridsen, Vijay Singh, Brian Galante and more. The concert culminates in a sing-along of new works selected for the occasion. Plus, meet and talk with a few of the composers at our 7pm pre-concert panel.
