Choral Tapas
bite-size concerts
Looking for a musical snack? Join Seattle Pro Musica for Choral Tapas, our new series of bite-size virtual concerts. In each episode, we'll share two choral works (one old, one new), a cocktail recipe from our executive director, and an appetizer demo by Seattle Cucina Cooking School. We'll even share recipes in advance so you can make your own drinks and nibbles while enjoying beautiful singing. Follow us on social media (subscribe to our YouTube channel!) or join our mailing list so you won't miss an episode!
Each concert is free and open to all; donations gratefully accepted.
