The Choral Arts Northwest season opener is a program of spiritual music that marries traditional and newer compositional voices. The choir will sing music for a cappella choir by Bruckner, Stopford, Vaughan Williams, and Mendelssohn alongside works for chorus and organ (Dove, Britten, and Mendelssohn) and even a piece for chorus and saxophone quartet! By juxtaposing these different styles and sonorities, Artistic Director Robert Bode aims to help the listener experience spiritual music in a variety of ways; perhaps, even, to be surprised into an experience of the Divine.

Tickets: $28 regular admission | $24 senior/military | students and youth free at the door
