Enjoy electric cello in the lobby of 2+U, with (Christmas) holiday vibes this time! (Please note, this is a different building than Two Union Square! 2+U is at 2nd & University). There's a lovely Cafe Ladro in the lobby next to where I'll be playing, and nice seating... free--sponsored by the Downtown Seattle Association
Relax among the conservatory’s tropical foliage as I take you on an atmospheric musical journey. (Free! $5 suggested donation. Sponsored by the Seymour Conservatory Foundation)

One of our favorite things? Taking care of the Earth and this beautiful Puget Sound region we call home. Canadian composer Marjan Mozetich’s expansive and moving Postcards from the Sky opens this program, which then features four outstanding local percussionists in Viet Cuong’s concerto for percussion quartet, Re(new)al, inspired by the renewable power of hydro, wind and solar energy. Debussy’s iconic La Mer, arranged by Marlijn Helder for chamber orchestra closes the program. We are delighted to collaborate with local organizations doing great work in our communities to combat the effects of pollution and climate change. Stay tuned for opportunities to connect with Tacoma Tree Foundation and Communities for a Healthy Bay around this concert.
