It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas…
Maybe not just yet BUT Christmas is almost around the corner and we wanted to remind you of all the opportunities PLU provides to help you celebrate the most wonderful time of the year! If you have never attended one of PLU’s annual Christmas concerts, do not wait another moment to order your tickets for one of the concerts in Seattle, Portland or Tacoma! Even if you have had the pleasure to attend these events in the past, keep reading because there are many exciting changes this year.
The first of many exciting changes is that PLU's annual Christmas Concerts will have a
Seattle venue that is as inspiring as the music: Benaroya Hall. On Monday night, Dec. 7, the
Choir of the West,
University Chorale and members of the
University Symphony Orchestra will present joyous anthems, processionals, carols, narration and a choral masterwork in Seattle's premiere musical venue, home of the Seattle Symphony. Not only is the larger, acoustically brilliant hall a fitting stage to showcase the talents of PLU's finest student-musicians, it will be a marvelous opportunity to introduce greater Seattle to PLU's signature musical event. Friends and alumni of PLU save the date - and be sure to bring some friends.
In
Tacoma the Christmas Concert is also moving. On campus, performances will take place in PLU's Lagerquist Concert Hall in the Mary Baker Russell Music Center, itself a magnificent venue. To ensure that more concertgoers can enjoy the smaller, more intimate venue, the concert will take place on three dates, Dec. 6, 10 and 11.
In
Portland, the concert will shift to the beautiful Newmark Theater on Dec. 5.
