2025 – 2026 SEASON IS ON!
Join us for our 60th Season
Experience the beauty, artistry, and passion of Northwest Choral Society’s 2025-26 Concert Season as we present three programs that are sure to nourish your soul and lift your spirit! On November 9, we’ll present “Stardust”, a recital of choral repertoire that explores human relationships to stars, planets, and the night sky; on December 14, we’ll present our annual offering of “A Northwest Christmas”, featuring carols, favorite choral music of the season, and an audience sing-along. On May 3, we’ll conclude our concert season with music of the 20th-century English composer Ralph Vaughan Williams, including his Five Mystical Songs as well as the hauntingly beautiful Mass in G minor. We hope you’ll join us for one or all of these concerts in this, our 60th season!
