Northwest Sinfonietta brings the wonders of the great outdoors into the concert hall with Sky & Stone!
This innovative, nature-inspired program opens with a newly commissioned work by NWS clarinetist Angelique Poteat, inspired by the dramatic Chuckanut Formation near Bellingham, Washington. Journey next to the bogs and frozen tundra of the Arctic in Einojuhani Rautavaara’s mesmerizing Cantus Arcticus—a concerto blending orchestra and recorded birdsong. The evening concludes with Beethoven’s beloved Symphony No. 6 (“Pastoral”), complete with bubbling brooks, singing birds, summer storms, and a joyful village celebration.

In partnership with Tacoma Tree Foundation, Tahoma Bird Alliance, NW Geological Society, Spaceworks Tacoma, and Tacoma Youth Symphony, Sky & Stone celebrates the beauty, power, and harmony of the natural world.

Running time with intermission — 95 min
