Description
With approximately 100 auditioned singers, Kirkland Choral Society is one of the premier large choral groups in the Puget Sound region. Now entering its 37th anniversary season, the Choral Society's repertoire emphasizes the great works for chorus and orchestra, but also includes a wide variety of fine choral music, including works by the leading composers of our day.
For the past ten years, KCS has maintained a partnership with one of Seattle’s finest orchestras, Philharmonia Northwest, regularly performing the great works for chorus and orchestra at venues such as Benaroya Hall.
KCS is also committed to new music; commissioning significant choral works by Kirke Mechem, Ola Gjeilo, Carol Barnett, Donald Skirvin, John Muehleisen, and Laura Sgroi. The upcoming season will feature a new commission from Dale Trumbore. KCS has also given the Seattle-area premiere of many fine works, including Carol Barnett's "Bluegrass Mass," Jocelyn Hagen's "The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci," and this season, "Say Your Name" by Reena Esmail.
KCS is thrilled to have Dr. Brennan Michaels as their newly appointed Artistic Director!
