Description

Comprised of the Northwest Boychoir and Vocalpoint! Seattle, the Northwest Choirs provides music education and performance opportunities to young people. Annually, 200 young singers enroll in our premier music education programs. These students -- boys ages 6 to 18, and girls 12 to 18 -- come from all corners of the Puget Sound region representing 115 diverse public and private elementary, middle and high schools. In our program, these children and young adults become skilled musicians and singers with a passion for the musical arts, and the unique ability to perform great choral literature and contemporary works at the highest professional levels. Considered the premier children’s choirs in Seattle and the Pacific Northwest, the Northwest Choirs is an integral part of the region’s cultural life. Northwest Choirs members perform regularly with the Seattle Symphony Orchestra, as well as other high-profile performing arts groups in the area.

Northwest Choirs is frequently contracted by top Hollywood studios and production companies to record movie, commercial and video game soundtracks. The choirs perform year-round to sold-out audiences at their own concert series and also as special guests of the Seattle Symphony and other outstanding arts groups.
