Music of the Pacific NW Highlights SJ Singers Concert
San Juan Island’s community chorus showcases home for their annual spring concert at San Juan Community Theatre on Saturday, April 13 at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday, April 14 at 5:00 p.m.
Directed by Angel Michaels, the San Juan Singers’ collage of music is either written about the Pacific Northwest and Canada, or by composers under the influence of the beautiful northwest country and islands. Much of the music speaks of the harbors, rivers, and woodlands that characterize our part of the world.
Featured composers include Grammy nominee and San Juan Island resident Morton Lauridsen and Canadian Donald Patriquin, as well as a new piece from Friday Harbor’s Mary WillAllen. In addition, the group will perform folk songs by Gordon Lightfoot, Ian & Sylvia, and Allister MacGillvray.
The evening’s Business Partner is Lake Kennedy McCulloch CPAs. Concert tickets are $15 for adults, $8 for student reserved, with $5 student RUSH one hour before the show. Coho Restaurant is offering a special pre-concert Northwest-style dinner on Saturday night. Reservations are required at 378-6330.
The SJCT Box Office is open Tuesdays through Fridays from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. or tickets may be purchased on-line at www.sjctheatre.org
