Patrice Rushen — Selected works

Join us for a very special event marking Key to Change's 5th anniversary. Mark Wright, retired news anchor for KING 5, will be your Emcee for the afternoon. In-person attendees will be delighted with wonderful music, delicious appetizers, and fine wine while we celebrate the past and prepare to set sail for the future.

Composer-in-residence Patrice Rushen will accompany Key to Change students in her original solo and chamber music pieces, written especially for them to perform for the Spring Salon Fundraiser.

As we celebrate the growth and expansion of our student programs, we are seeking to raise $125,000 in student scholarships to continue to provide world-class music instruction for the students currently enrolled in our program. Together, we can continue to provide opportunities that are inclusive, equitable, artistically excellent, and psychologically safe for our youth.
