2024 – 2025 SEASON IS ON!

Join us for our 59th Season

Our first Concert of our 59th Season is on!

Northwest Choral Society proudly presents its 2024-25 Concert Season, featuring a delightful array of choral music that’s sure to enrich your spirit! Our season includes three concerts which are quite
different in theme and conception: on November 10, we’ll present “Heritage”, a program of choral works which all share common ancestry in early American traditions, including lots of familiar tunes,
as well as some new favorites; on December 15, we’ll offer our annual Christmas concert, complete with carols, favorite choral music of the season, and an audience sing-along; and, we’ll conclude
our season on May 4 with an exciting program featuring the Vivaldi Gloria in D major as well as J.S. Bach’s Cantata 80 (A mighty fortress) accompanied by full Baroque orchestra! We hope you’ll join
us for one or all of these concerts – it’s music that’s sure to move your soul and enliven your spirit!
