Seattle Women's Chorus Announces Their 7th Season of Concerts

Now in its seventh season, Seattle Women's Chorus is breaking new boundaries and winning new fans with every concert. They have grown to over 250 members strong and are cementing their reputation as one of America's top women's choruses. The 2009-2010 season features two terrific programs: a holiday concert that will fill audiences with warmth and merriment, and a summertime choral extravaganza celebrating the music of Sondheim and Bernstein. In this joint concert with Seattle Men's Chorus, and an anticipated 400 voices on stage in June, 2010, they are guaranteed to raise the rafters.
