This weekend Orchestra Seattle | Seattle Chamber Singers will perform Lili Boulanger’s Psalm 129, as well as Karitas habundat by Hildegard von Bingen, as well as and the swallow by Caroline Shaw.  Read program notes here!

Also this weekend Symphony of the Potomac will perform Florence Price’s Symphony No. 3 in a concert that will also include George Walker’s Lyric for Strings.  

The wonderful music continues through next week with the Seattle Collaborative Orchestra performing on Tuesday, February 12, featuring Julia Perry’s Short Piece for Orchestra and the World Premiere of Leanna Primiani’s 1001.
