Dear Friends of Northwest Repertory Singers,

Get ready to enjoy a captivating program of song as NWRS presents, “To Life! To Love!” on May 4 at 7:30 PM and May 5 at 3 PM at Christ Episcopal Church.

Marjorie Skreen and Duane Hulbert, piano duet

Scored for singers and two pianists, we’re delighted to present the choral movements of this landmark work with collaborative pianists Marjorie Skreen and Duane Hulbert. Don’t be surprised if you find yourself tapping your feet to this clever and lively music! Our repertoire also includes modern gems such as Elaine Hagenberg’s “Measure Me, Sky,” a piece that urges the exploration of life’s boundless potential, and Cecilia McDowall’s “Love’s Philosophy,” which intricately weaves together harmonies reflecting the richness of love’s emotions.

We’ll journey through time with Emma Lou Diemer’s settings of Shakespeare poems in Three Madrigals and explore powerful themes conveyed in René Clausen’s “Set Me as a Seal” and Undine Smith Moore’s “I Would Be True.”

The concert concludes with the infectious energy of Moses Hogan’s “This Little Light of Mine” and the poignant beauty of Kim André Arnesen’s “My Flame the Song,” each offering a unique perspective on the meaning of life and love.

Please join us on May 4 and May 5 as we share a concert filled with a wide range of emotion and memorable melodies. Purchase your tickets here. We look forward to welcoming you “To Life! To Love!”

In Song, Northwest Repertory Singers

Preview of coming NWRS events

The 2023-2024 NWRS season of singing is now underway!

This season brings some notable changes to the size and composition of the choir, plus the addition of two social events that are new to NWRS:

- A musical event watching Les Miserables at the Grand Cinema on November 5th, 2 pm – 5 pm with a social hour afterward.
  Get your tickets here!
  - - Captions will be shown and audience members are invited to sing along!
    - The group did a similar viewing of the musical Mamma Mia this past spring, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
    - Now, we’re opening future events to the public!
- A larger second event in the Spring to be announced soon, stay tuned – you won’t want to miss this!

We also invite you to save the dates for our Winter concerts on December 16th and 17th at Christ Church in Tacoma’s Stadium District.

This theme for this concert is “Sing Noel“, and we’re featuring a number of pieces that use familiar holiday themes in unfamiliar settings, plus a piece performed by Artistic Director Kyle Haugen on the pipe organ, and some caroling with audience participation. Tickets are available!

With many returning veterans of NWRS, plus new members who auditioned in, we are excited to bring you our latest season of exceptional musical performances, and look forward to seeing you all soon.
