Octave 9 at Benaroya Hall, Seattle, WA, United States
Angélica Negrón — Selected works
Peter S. Shin — Selected works

For Seattle Symphony Clarinet Eric Jacobs, this past year has made him think about how musicians use their voices, about our space in our communities, and about how these things will evolve. The intersection between singing and clarinet is a perfect way to explore this evolution. Together with the Seattle Symphony, Jacobs has commissioned Angélica Negrón and Peter Shin to compose for singing clarinetist and electronics in order to explore our stories and how they are told. These new pieces will come together in a seamless program conceived for the theatrical surrounds of Octave 9.

Our new Octave 9 series stretches the boundaries of creative possibility, immersing you in new worlds through the fusion of music and technology.

The Seattle Symphony and Benaroya Hall will require all event attendees to provide proof of full vaccinations (or a negative COVID-19 test) and to wear masks inside the venue regardless of vaccination status. Visit seattlesymphony.org/safety for more information on our safety measures.
