Pre-college students will perform pieces written by Cascadia Composers. Some will perform music written specifically for them; others will present works selected by their teachers from a score call to all 100+ Cascadia members. In either case, the composers collaborate with the students to develop their performance and further their understanding of the piece and of contemporary music in general—a unique opportunity for the students and a rewarding experience for the composers.

TicketsCycles of Life is a concert of music for voice and piano, together and in solos, exploring the experiences and emotions we encounter as we navigate the path of life.
The music is lyrical, dramatic, funny, and poignant, with works exploring the sleepless excitement of your first crush and the night before your wedding, the loneliness of losing a loved one or moving away from home, the joy of feeling at home in your body, the search for gratitude in the face of struggle, the loving protection of parents for their children during a time of climate crisis, and more.
Cycles of Life is a unique concert in that performers Dianne Davies, piano, and Lisa Neher, mezzo-soprano are also the composers of the music you will hear.
