Concert Review: Artful Representation Concludes the Symphony Tacoma Season

Welcome aboard, conductors and composers of the 6th Annual Cascade Conducting Masterclass! This year, we have a diverse cohort of participants from various cultural and educational backgrounds. The attendees will have the opportunities to sharpen their skills in orchestral conducting under Sarah’s guidance, learning choral conducting with our beloved Dr. Geoferry Boers, and studying composition closely with Dr. David Ludwig, dean of the music division at the prestigious Juilliard.

Under the lead of Dr.Boers, the Choral Final concert will take place at The Lagerquist Hall of PLU on Friday, June 30th at 7:30 pm, performed by members of Symphony Tacoma Voices and conducted by the participants of the Choral Conducting Masterclass. The composer’s workshop with Dr. Ludwig will be held on Saturday, July 1st 9am at The Lagerquist Hall; and the program will be closed out by the orchestral conducting students’ final concert, which will take place on the same day at 3pm and performed by Symphony Tacoma’s musicians. All three concerts are free to the public! We will also live stream these concerts through the Orquesta Northwest YouTube page.

These final concerts will present a week full of exploration, learning, collaboration, and growth, by these incredibly talented and diverse participants, that you will not want to miss!
