Cadence Chamber Orchestra (CCO), Seattle’s newest community orchestra, is offering free concerts throughout Seattle and on Thursday, March 11 they will perform at the Q Cafe in Interbay and on Friday, March 12 the performance will be at the Magnolia United Church of Christ. Both shows start at 8p.m.
The concert program features two world premieres by Seattle-based composer Jon Brenner. It also includes Haydn’s well-known Symphony No. 88 and Mendelssohns Hebrides Overture.
CCO was founded last year with the goal of widening the usual orchestral audience with a new alternative orchestra. They provide free concerts throughout Seattle. Each program is performed at two venues – one in an unconventional location, and the other in a more typical performance space. A world premiere piece is programmed at every concert set, among more well known orchestral favorites. CCO wants to attract people who would not otherwise have the opportunity to experience live orchestral music. CCO is made of entirely up of volunteer musicians.
