Music invites us into a space apart. Within that space, so much is possible. 

Music offers time for us to contemplate the world and our place in it. Harmony opens our hearts to the ways we empathize with our neighbors. Listening inspires transformation and action. Powerful songs give voice to the universal longing for freedom and liberation. Music consoles us when we join in remembrance of those we have lost. And of course, singing is the essential way we celebrate the exuberant joy and wonder of the holidays.

I invite you to muse, heal, learn,  grow, and  rejoice this season with Pacific Chorale. Together, let’s embark on a journey of connection, inspiration, and celebration.
