Gift of Song

Celebrate the season with Tacoma Youth Chorus! This festive holiday performance features our combined choirs in the beautiful setting of Lagerquist Concert Hall in the Mary Baker Russell Music Center at Pacific Lutheran University. We will be joined by guest artist Alistair MacRae, principal cellist of Symphony Tacoma and the Cordelia Wikarski-Miedel Artist-in-Residence at the University of Puget Sound. To accommodate audiences, there will be two identical performances at 2:00 pm and 4:00 pm (note: earlier start time for the second performance!).
Candlelight Concert
Friday, December 20th
The Candlelight Concert is a beloved Tacoma Youth Chorus and community tradition. Led by Judith Herrington and Alonso Brizuela, our high school Chorale will share their music and traditional carols of the season in an intimate setting. The Legacy Choir, made up of TYC alums, will also perform. Don’t miss this special evening!
Sharing Our Song Winter Program

Bring your family for a free magical evening of fun, music, and memories at the Bryant Neighborhood Center (located at Trinity Presbyterian Church)! Join Tacoma Youth Chorus’ 2nd-4th Grade Concert Choir as they present the children’s book, “Winter: A Solstice Story” by Kelsey E. Gross. People of all ages are invited to hear the choir sing music to accompany the story of forest animals shining their light on the longest and darkest night of the year.
